Lightning bolts or flames on that blue pitchfork? Might I interest you in a lovely rainbow torch handle?

This isn’t nearly as fun without the pitchfork examples from PitchforkEmporium…

Thanks for proving my point I guess…?

the movement expanded against what many perceive as an authoritarian government when hundreds of protestors and civilians, most of whom were students, were killed.[f] The majority of the fatalities were caused by gunshots fired by the police and other government forces, using lethal and deadly weapons,[89] against unarmed protestors and non-protesting civilians, including children and pedestrians

Meaning it’s literal suicide.

Edit because you’re sure to bring this up: sure you might bring about change, but each individual in that protest holding a proverbial pitchfork is just yet another practice target for the cops.
