All I know about the Mandela affect is that lots of people think something is different then it supposedly is. Like I guess my question is, is it a real thing? Or is it just that people are lying about changes. I swear I’ve seen so many things “proving” certain Mandela effects or whatever.

The Mandela Effect documents instances of large groups of people who remember certain world events as having happened differently than the official version.
Or, in other words, cases where people misunderstood the same thing in the same way.
Two of the most famous examples of the effect are the Berenstain Bears, which many people swear is supposed to be written with as Berenstein, and the star wars quote “Luke, I am your father”, which doesn’t actually appear anywhere in the movies.
In the case of the former, both are valid spellings of the word, so some people spent years writing it the wrong way because who the hell would pay attention to that. In the latter, the actual line is “No, I am your father.” I’ll be honest, I’m not sure how this one even made it onto the list when the explanation is very clearly “people swapped out exactly one word to clarify context.”
