    Maybe we all have shifted into a different reality?

    No, we haven’t. But it’s really hard for people to accept that their brains fabricate memories really easily, and with predictable patterns. Your brain read that story and immediately manufactured a memory for it without you even realising.

    So that was never a thing?

    Nope. Just some mixture of things conflating in people’s minds.

      I can accept that our brain lies to us. For me it was always your brain making you see colors you truly didn’t see. I actually experience it. But imagining a brand I don’t think so. Especially when to many people all have the same exact experience? Some of sure but some of these I’m not so sure.

      If only we had time travel then we could prove our disapprove some of these things.
