Leon Trotsky was really the one who lived through his own erasure from the Soviet Union. As Stalin's main rival, Trotsky was a trusted advisor to Lenin and was the one who everyone, Lenin included, saw as the next in line to take power. A 1936 anti-Trotsky Soviet propaganda poster.

Answer by Artorius
After the death of Lenin, Stalin & Trotsky were rivals for the leadership of the USSR. If Stalin had his way, he would have erased Trotsky completely from history. Even when Trotsky was in exile, he was still a threat to Stalin's regime & it's believed (although not proven) that Stalin sent the agents who assassinated Trotsky.
