All grey horizontal lines are parallel while they don't look like it. Shifting black/white rectangles makes the lines look angled

Well, actually when image is huge, it is not obvious but if you scale page zoom down, you can notice the trick.

It's an optical illusion. Lines are actually parallel, but seem not so.
