Protest

protest is a melee item in item asylum. It is a wooden sign that randomly selects one of a selection of messages.
== Functionality ==
Equipping protest causes a booing sound effect to play.
Using protest causes the user to swing the sign downward, dealing 17.5 damage and inflicting hitstun, additionally playing a sound effect. The item has a cooldown lasting 0.8 seconds after each swing.
The protest currently has 58 different messages that can appear:
