Pitchfork

Indie review site

A pitchfork is a long-handled farm tool with two or more prongs, used for lifting and moving hay, straw, or other loose material.

The image of angry villagers carrying pitchforks and torches persists as a symbol of mob uprising against perceived enemies: The shareholders were ready with pitchforks after the scandal.

To pitchfork someone into a position is to thrust them into it abruptly.
