Next on the conspiracy agenda is the Mandela effect, a phenomenon where large groups of people recall events differently than recorded history. Named after Nelson Mandela, whom many mistakenly believed had died in the 1980s, this effect raises questions about our grasp on reality. Common examples cite movie lines and product names that countless individuals remember differently from their actual wording.
Some theorists posit that these discrepancies may indicate slippages between parallel universes, suggesting that our memories could be overlapping with echoes from alternate realities. Skeptics counter that these shared misrememberings are merely the results of cognitive biases and suggest that collective memory can sometimes distort historical facts.
