One said says Nelson Mandela was in The Smiths, the other side says he wasn't. Obviously the truth is somewhere in-between.

[–] wise_pancake@lemmy.ca 8 points 1 year ago

He was in the smiths until he was executed

[–] WoodScientist@lemmy.world 13 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I think you mean the Mandala Effect.

[–] Semi_Hemi_Demigod@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

No it’s the Mengele Effect

[–] WoodScientist@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yes, named for the infamous Dr. Mengele, the German doctor who performed abominable experiments on prisoners during the Franco-Prussian War.

And how some people think he was apprehended in Ohio in 1970

[–] WoodScientist@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Someone probably just got confused by the Ohio Hitlers.

Didn't Morrissey die in jail?

Their logo didn't even have a horn of plenty to begin with.

Nelson Mandela, of the Smiths fame.

Hilarious that someone named "anarcho.stalinist.socdem" isn't online enough to recognize the meme.

[–] Blackout@fedia.io 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)
