Why are Iranian hardliners issuing violent threats against President Pezeshkian?

Iran is currently gripped by political turmoil as hardline groups allege that the country's senior leadership is carrying out a "soft coup" amid ongoing negotiations with the US. At the funeral for Ali Khamenei, segments of the attendees shouted "death to the compromiser," targeting President Masoud Pezeshkian. Furthermore, a hardliner directed a chilling threat at Pezeshkian, stating, "us, the blade and your throat." The situation is being further exacerbated by the notable absence of Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei.
