I was under the impression for a long time that the band Steely Dan made only ONE album, which is what made them unique. Then I switched multiverses.

I am one of those who were surprised by New Zealand's placement.
I am pretty sure the issue is with my memory and not the entire universe .. or with New Zealand.

note to self - i shall remain polite - i shall remain polite
hey - lets be blunt - i am of the opinion that the mandela effect = sponsored by dunning // kreuger
so - lets have a " test " - and please be honest - because lying just shows that you are not only wrong - but dishonest too
my premise is simple :
has anyone who believes that " new zealand was in a different place " :
served in a military or merchant navy ? hold a degree in geology ? teach geography [ hisghchool or above ] ?
or have ANY diploma or credential that we should accept as expertise ?
or people who believe thier heart // kidneys // insert other organ is " in the wrong place "
hold any proffesional qualification in medicine ? heck i will even accept vetinary medicine or scrapping the barrel - " i has a diploma in butchery "
responses should not be limited to the above 2 examples - but i expect a credible link between the mandela effect you believe - and your proffesional qualification
so - lets have your correlations

Do you have any other qualifications, that permits you to stand and look down, mocking the ME believers?

His point is no actual experts who have an opinion that matters have these beliefs. There are no heart surgeons who suddenly start thinking hearts are in the wrong place. That lends credence to it being misremembered, and nothing is changed.

I personally don't think a diploma or degree is required to know that there are people who are misinformed, and that people (anyone) can mis-remember things, and people (anyone) can feel something is a fact, but that fact be based one falsely information or false perception.
What I'm saying is that nothing anyone has ever presented as evidence that ME is caused by alternate timelines/realities/dimensions can't simply be explained by the fact the human memory and perception is fallible, and that some people can hold a false fact long enough to believe that the fact is true (that is to say, simply because they have always believed something, that somehow means that it must be true).

I'm talking about much further into the future.
If you can create an environment where everyone misremebers minor details and people start to question their own memories (in relation to the memories of others) it would become much easier to start implementing small changes and slowly build up to the important stuff.
Like I said, prepare the ground in advance. One day it could be something very important indeed.
