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...

now that I've had my fun maybe you'd be interested in this very recent example
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.
They took down the government.... Their revolution succeeded.
I didn't realize your point was even stupider than I imagined. Thanks for your great contribution Socrates.
You sound like you just have a martyr fantasy. That or you actively want your fellow protesters dead.
history is full of examples where people just sat around waiting and change happened
