Eh. The more I think about it, the less I remember braces.
It’s not like they disappeared or something. Mandela Effect people are really, really weird.
The Mandela Effect presumes that people always remember things 100% accurately. But they don’t, people misremember things, or don’t notice things all the time. You’re transcribing information into meat, essentially, it’s a very malleable process, and things get messed up. With the Bernst(e)[a]in bears thing, I do remember it as stein, but that’s probably because stein is a very common suffix in surnames, I didn’t read the title closely, and the font is strange. Alternate universes aren’t needed to explain stuff like that. That said, I still think the phenomenon is very interesting.
Edit: Just watched the video, that is pretty strange, but it’s not proof of an alternate universe.
Exactly. To me it’s a ridiculous notion on par with superstition.
People are so wrapped up in ego that they’d rather create an alternate universe where they’re correct than accept the possibility that they misremembered something.
