What is missing from all these ME discussions is testimony from someone who says something like:
"I worked in the Ford factory for twenty years looking at the logo all day long everyday and one day we came in and the logo had magically changed."
Or;
"I worked at Barnes and Noble for years and one day I was looking at the computer and "Berenstein" magically changed into "Berenstain" right in front of me and all the books on the shelves were changed, too."
Instead, it's all people saying "I remember it being different a long time ago."

That fits the examples of proof you gave. Would you take that evidence as factual?

I'm not expecting you (or me) to change.
For the sake of argument.
Perhaps. Perhaps Timeline C. Or maybe it's random. It may stand to reason that as someone shifts into a timeline not their own, they push the other person out, so to speak. Initiates a shift for that person. Which, in turn, would force another shift, and another. Consider all the people in the world that would be experiencing this. So many shifts would be taking place all day, every day. Who knows at what rate? On the individual level, you would be waiting for your next turn to shift. It will happen. It has to. One shift initiates another, initiates another, initiates another, initiates another.
And how quickly do these shifts happen? Do you immediately shift? Or is it a slower process? Because I would think that if it was instantaneous or near enough so, then the individual would be constantly shifting. Which begs the question. When is there enough time to experience or recognize any changes? But perhaps it isn't quick like that.
What about the nature of these other timelines? Are there infinite possibilities? Could the outcome of my life be infinitely different from the one I am experiencing now? How similar or dissimilar are these other timelines to my own? Does it vary widely? For example. When I was a child, I wanted to be a marine biologist when I grew up. I love sharks see, and the oceans diverse forms of life. I didn't become one though, at least in this timeline. But is it possible that in another, I followed that dream? With so many timelines and potentials, anything could be possible.
But that doesn't help the Mandela Effect, in my opinion. Not much of the way I'm looking at this does. I would expect more suggestive evidence then what I have seen so far. I have some questions.
1. Where are the vastly different world timeline accounts?
Examples: 9/11 didn't happen. JFK lived. The Germans won WWII. Russia won the space race.
2. Where are the "I remember being a marine biologist yesterday" accounts?
With everybody shifting, situations like this should be happening. In one timeline the person followed a path different from the one he shifted to. Maybe John Doe has two daughters in one timeline but shifts to one where one of his two children was a boy. How come we don't here about accounts like these?
3. In your opinion, what is the best and/or most interesting things you have heard that could support the ME and why?
Other than your own. Genuinely curious.
In my opinion, if this is happening, then with diligent observation, a larger picture would start to emerge. Data on this timeline, and that timeline could be collected. A whole new frontier. Eventually things would get clearer. We would have names for various timelines we learn to recognize. We would all dread the day we shift over to any number of the timelines with a successful 3rd Reich. Hopefully cross are fingers we shift into the Utopia. Those may sound like extremes, but are they? Considering we are speaking about a plethora of possibilities.
And that is one of my points.
With all the shifting and possibilities, why is the best evidence so trivial?
And why so little of it?
IMO there is nothing wrong with eriktheawful's posts. His points are completely valid.
It's the Mandela Effect proponents that are the confusing ones. And I really do mean confusing.

So I ask you, at what point in time did they have a logo without the swirl?
originally posted by: FlabberGhast
And just because you don't like a theory giving a possible explanation doesn't mean the phenomenon is not real.
Lots of the castings don't carry the swirl. You would never pay the cost of new casting die for a simple logo swirl.

You''re supposed to convince me with actual time warps, not changing logos.
Jif peanut butter? What a gyp, gip, jip, pfff... t
I get it. It isn't hard to comprehend. I just disagree completely.

You didn't answer the question you responded to.
So from what year is such a casting die that you are refering to that didn't carry the swirl? Since they always had the swirl after 1910 or so.
