In recent months, Amish people have seemingly disappeared, leading many to speculate as to whether or not they actually exist or have existed. Surprisingly, as we\u2019ve found through an extensive investigation, they never have.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
According to expert Amish historian and TikTok enthusiast Jedediah Jedediahson, Amish people were first created as a myth to scare children away from technology.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cI\u2019m very disappointed that no one has taken the time to read up on this,\u201d Jedediahson said. \u201cWe still have so many people running around believing in this lie, that Amish people are actually real.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We did some fact-checking by talking to some \u201cAmish people\u201d and found that Jedediahson is mostly correct. They declined to comment on the record, but we know the truth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cSo, the next time you and your friends are out and someone calls you \u2018crazy\u2019 or \u2018stupid\u2019 for thinking Amish people are myths, don\u2019t be sad,\u201d Jedediahson said. \u201cI\u2019ve been there.
