The thing is this isn't actually side-by-side stereoscopy, because typically for such images, in order for it to work, the left eye must be focused on the right image, and the right eye on the left image (cross-eyed, rather than wide-eyed). On the contrary, these VR-style pictures depict the image as viewed in VR, thus the left image corresponds to the left eye and the right image to the right eye.
In other words, the perspective does not line up correctly and the image cannot be viewed as a side-by-side stereogram without the use of an optical device.
EDIT: We might need to split the virtual_reality tag for the pictures that depict the VR device, and the ones like these where it's what you see with VR.

I tried it on this and yes it doesn't align(looks funny though), it's just I can't seem to remember a thing about the visual trick that's usually depicted like this.
And also about the tagging sure I wanted to help but I don't know what to tag these kind of picture as, how about as VR_(visual) for picture that depict a scene as seen via VR device or VR_(device) for picture that depict virtual reality device?

I'd probably wait until more of these VR visual pictures show up, since pretty much every other virtual_reality picture right now is depicting the device. Since the VR device is so much more prevalent, it might be better to leave that as virtual_reality, and instead just modify the tag for virtual_reality_(visual) pictures (or another more intuitive name).

Okay then I'll wait, and yes only about 46 picture that existed there that depicted the use of VR device and about less than 12 that actually indicate that they're depicting a scene from a VR so yeah, that's really underpopulated.

That explains why I had so much trouble with this one when I can usually view most crosseye stereograms with little difficulty. I swapped the sides of this one in paint to see if it would work and it did, though the depth of field on this one made it difficult to focus on at fullscreen sizes (on a 23" monitor).
To see the effect most clearly, use a smartphone or other similar mobile device. Then, proceed as follows:
1) Get under a cover or block the light around you in some other way. 2) With a piece of paper, cardstock, or something of the like (make sure it’s non-reflective), divide your screen into the two images by placing the divider vertically. Neither image should be covered, they should just be separated. 3) Place your face against the edge of the divider so that it vertically bisects your face. You should now only be able to see one image per eye. 4) Attempt to focus your eyes on the image. This may take some patience, but it will usually only take 30 seconds or so to figure it out. Once you figure it out, it’s easy to do it again. 5) You should now see a 3D image.
P.S. There should really be more of these, they’re amazing!
