LOL the lie is complete!
World's Best Party Magic Trick - Zach King
I'm using my frankness to inspire your eventual break from the repressive social attitudes of your ant regime. Magic is symbolic of the grand illusion of all societies. Especially ant society. Kind of scary, your hive's influence on us humans. It's such a blissful possibility being made part of one mind.
I am still a virgin.

Optical Illusion Painting
Yeah, there are lots of videos of him online, but this one seems appropriately creepy:

Have seen the hollow face illusion before, but that dragon was great!
Wow!
He's the Grand Illusions guy. Aside from the videos his online toyshop has a lot of cool stuff.

This guy is actually really cool.
I used to watch his YT channel but alas I simply can't find a link at the moment, maybe some one with great powers can help. I remember being introduced to him by a video on this site, I just can't remember the content, I think it was looking at different Puzzle Boxes.
Anyway, basically he has a bunch of videos reviewing toys from all over the world and he has a real great way of talking about them. This little snippet gives you a funny idea of how he presents, he does that a lot where he ends a review with a single word like "Amazing".
Reversing Arrow Optical Illusion
Sheesh... if you listen to Styx you would know it's all a grand illusion
Two Unusual Staplers
Do you think you have him beat? This man has been staple-less stapling since the Reagan administration. That's how much of a badass he is.

Those are kind of interesting, but I still like my staple-less stapler, which *is* available in the west: http://www.thinkgeek.com/product/8b70/+

How deluded must you be to believe that punching a couple holes in a piece of paper once every two to four years has any significant effect or meaning in your life? He's right, as the politicians sell you that grand illusion of democratic choice you lose your real freedom to choose.
And...? Until we no longer have a system where the majority can vote my rights away I will continue to vote. Doesn't mean people who think it's a fundamentally good system aren't deluded.
You're so Manichean about things. I'm with Churchill -- democracy is the worst form of government, except for all the others that have been tried.
In any case, the platonic ideal of democracy is that all citizens get an equal say in the decisions that affect their lives. What you're describing, by definition, isn't democracy. If people's choices are being usurped, or made meaningless, it's ceased to be democracy.
What we need is more democracy, not less.

Floating Cube in Center
I can never unsee this illusion, I think it's one of the best.
You can easily fold and glue a dragon which has the same effect by following the instructions here:
