The Mandela Effect

[CCoburn]

It's difficult to share it as a 'mis'-recollection.  Although I know the "Mandela Effect" is the point of the exploration of these instances, it also seems there must be some alternate explanation that doesn't involve 'reality changing' phenomena.  Has anyone heard of other theories, or are they all reality-bending?

It seems like 'some' are erroneous recollection, but it just doesn't 'feel' like ALL of them are, and currently I'm not aware of any scenarios other than reality being altered or "erroneous recollection", BUT, in some instances it not only appears as an altering of reality but more like a degradation of reality or the initial stages of some form of entropic decline like perhaps creation is at the verge of becoming 'undone', and of course the reason I say that is because some of these "effects" themselves appear as a "degradation" i.e. the original seems to make more sense.

The actual mechanics of this Mandela Effect though largely remains somewhat of a mystery.

I'm confused about the Sally Ride Christa McAuliffe thing, and I just seem to remember that the one that died was a teacher, but this is one of my less confident ones, so I normally wouldn't bring it up.
