Wait but if this is Summer '05 then why are there Rasputin cartoons? He only became influential after the 1905 revolution. The rumours of his affair with the empress only became widespread after 1912 and only became damaging accompanied by rumours of espionage after 1915. Cartoons like the one Kira has with their pornographic nature only became prominent after the abolition of censorship during the February revolution after Rasputin's death.
