In Iran, a mourner is an occupation. You can hire them for your burial


ShittyCatLover

oh my! Can I hire them to a Halloween party? Imagine chilling and then some crazy trashbag comes and starts doing whatever that was 😂


604princess

Crazy trash bag hahahaah

I would love this job. Getting paid for crying? where do I sign up? lol


Possible-Fee-5052

They have funeral strippers in Taiwan. [funeral strippers](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Funeral_stripper)


spaetzelspiff

Now we're talking


Al_Jazzera

I remember watching a documentary about this, it was started by the mob and became a tradition. There was a cool ol' cat that didn't have much time left and he said that he wanted two holes drilled into his coffin so he could see. My man!


Possible-Fee-5052

Honestly, I’m surprised they don’t have this tradition in places outside of East Asia, like New Orleans. I’m sure more people would take the morning off of work to attend a stripper funeral.


Al_Jazzera

I know I would.


Agile-Cap-5242

Lol


ErnestoCruz

No joke this also a thing in a village in India.


Unfair-Surround533

Rudaali if I'm not wrong?


ErnestoCruz

yup


lunartree

I was gonna say, I'm generally not one to suggest people are faking their public displays of opinion, but the sheer theatrics involved in "mourning" here really look like this is some kind of act. Like beyond the cynical take of "this is fake" it's so obviously performative that it makes me think there is a cultural element here lost in translation.


Ms_Ripple

At first glance the male mourners looked like a Saturday night live sketch to me.


AstrumReincarnated

I’ve thought about trying to start my own mourning business. I cry every day anyway, would be nice to get paid for it!


randzwinter

Bro there was a literaly business like that in China Taiwan and the Philippinez, theres even a movie about it called "Crying Ladies". Must be fun tbh. As long as it pays well, wouldnt mind to do it part time.


AstrumReincarnated

I used to read a lot of prehistoric fiction and they used ‘professional mourners’ in a number of books! So I always knew it had to be based on something real. I read once that there were even people who would be paid to die and be buried with a person! The money would go to their families, of course.


Thin_Adhesiveness_66

I think you need to read more uplifting books.


Conscious_Scholar_87

Oh man, I thought it was a Chinese only thing


Buffyoh

If she really loved Raisi, she would kill herself!


NotAFedPromise

What the fuck?


BinaryPear

This can’t be real. It’s like a comedy sketch.


shushi77

I was thinking the same.


BinaryPear

lol right?! Specially the dude.


Fashish

The second part is. It’s a skit from an old beloved comedy series.


WorldNeverBreakMe

It sounds like those old Xbox rage compilations you’d see in like 2010


sherperion45

Holy shit lol, cope harder


themommyship

This is paliwood quality


sad-frogpepe

All you need is some fake blood and a doll


MagnetBane

We have watched children taking their last breaths on video because of the violence done to them. Parents are forced to share their children’s dead bodies or dying breaths to prove to the world the Palestinian people are worthy of life, is this just a joke to you?


sad-frogpepe

Okay grandpa lets get you back to bed, You forgot your meds again.


youmeanNOOkyuhler

I would sincerely enjoy sharing a number of videos with you.


zer01zer08

This reminds me of the Christian’s in america when they “catch the Holy Ghost” and start acting like a complete fool. Fake ass bozo everywhere


Calm_Blackberry_9463

Pentacostalism is the denomination that does this if anyone is curious.


stony_rock

That "speaking in tongues" 🤣


TeQuila10

One of my favorite old/out of date terms for those people is "holy rollers."


K19081985

Ha ha exactly what I thought of.


ProjectConfident8584

They are all such pick mes


Rauter666

Kim Jong-un is jealous 


Laboom7

Lmao. Good actor.


Matynns

second guy is so good i can’t tell if he’s mourning or celebrating


FreeToomaj

The second part is actually from a comedy show.


Perfect-Shame-7561

PAID actress!


Lucienliminalspace

LMAO ! MFS BE CRYING OVER A MURDERER LIKE HE’S THEIR GRANDPA


yesmilady

The second one is a skit, right?


Paleten_Ismal

It's an episode from a series called Pavarchin. It's more than 20 years old, but it's still used in popular media because it has a lot of memorable and good scenes.


yesmilady

Thanks! I thought it looked like some kind of local cult tv


Paleten_Ismal

What's a local cult TV?


yesmilady

Like, something that's a classic that anyone from a certain location/culture would know instantly but would be unknown to anyone else. I'm not sure I'm defining it right.


Paleten_Ismal

I see, I thought it was something worse.


squidguy_mc

Rest in piss


Southern-South-7548

Someone set up a camera in r/Shia


Master-Concept-5260

Stockholm Syndrome. When hostages start to identify with their captors cause.


foxontherox

Performative mourning.


MagnetBane

Reminds me of when the North Koreans “mourned” for their beloved leaders. I mean so many people were punished for not mourning hard enough and I wonder if that’s what many people are doing here. They think they may be rewarded for their signs of ultimate devotion or looked upon with suspicion for not mourning “enough.”


Count-Elderberry36

You know maybe it’s like North Korea and if they don’t act sad enough then their own family and three generations will be punished. /s How are the other Iranians doing? From normal Muslims to Christian’s and even Jews. Basically everyone? How you all doing?


NDjinn

OMFG. How embarrassing.


Yaantrik_Wruk

Well, that's some overacting she just did.


oroles_

I pretend to cry better when I was a toddler. What a cheap, disgusting circus


DiscountDesigner4779

What am I watching? Are these real people?


hereforfax_ripshit33

Mental mate , lol


DrkMoodWD

Iran might need more mental asylums to host more people.


dr0p8ear

Second one acts like my toddler when we drive PAST McDonald’s… what a queen!


Mr_Carstein

The second one is from an old comedy skit.


Possible-Fee-5052

Oh wow. DPRK vibes.


[deleted]

people in North Korea were less dramatic when Kim Il Sung and Kim Jong Il died, these people act like a valued member of the family died when in fact it was a lowly POS that slammed into the earth and is now a greasy spot on a hill.


vanillasub

I suspect they act like this for some form of social validation / political advancement. Some might be true believers swept up in the moment.


WhatMeWorry2020

Theatrics are a hallmark of religious indoctrination.


MightyPitchfork

Aww. Diddums.


STLrobotech

From an outside perspective this is just insane looking. Slapping yourself and going crazy to mourn? Humans can be so fucking wild.


Blood-Thin

The dude was a terrible actor I’ve seen better acting at a school play.


Lexiesmom0824

Only a 3 from me. She could have earned extra points for tearing off the head covering… extra points if handfuls of hair came with it. But I would liked to have seen spittle, yes maybe more spittle splashing everywhere and some drool. That would have been a solid 7. /s


AunMeLlevaLaConcha

The acting is so fucking cringe


AllahAndJesusGaySex

The way she ran out there looked like a Black Adder scene.


Hot_Description8251

Blud, she's a meatrider. https://preview.redd.it/a46ymo4ulu1d1.jpeg?width=622&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=cced9bbb25230255e1ad3cdb735a1304216db1d1


anon2019L

Ahahahahahaha


semiran

Either they do mourn or get stoned to death


PiroozParbakhsh

It just makes them look more insane. The world will learn more and more about their deathcult


arancini_7mm-08

They’ll find a new butcher. No worries.


KingJacoPax

Doesn’t Iran have “professional mourners” like they did in Ancient Rome?


SeasonSpiritual

Whatever they are getting paid, it should be lower. Their acting skills are real shitty.


JIBE-

this is comedy gold


IranoPasMighirim

Her name is Fati Sigheh - in her case her back and front are the same to any IRGC occupier that does her! Paid genetic garbage. I hope one day I find her grave and piss on it!

Typical Shias. Can't wait till we crush these savages.

How will yall deal with these freaks if the Americans topple the mullahs? I doubt they'd be happy with another shah. Perhaps they can become emigres

This is some shit straight out of Pyongyang.
