A video published on social media shows a laborer in Mahshahr voicing complaints about difficult living conditions and livelihood problems.

He expresses his fatigue and hopelessness, saying: “No matter how much we try, we don’t get anywhere… We got old in our youth.”

The laborer, pointing to the pressures of life, asks: “Where should we go, who should we complain to, who should we talk to? Who listens to our words?” and adds: “We didn’t live anything—when are we supposed to live?”
