A phrase commonly used by people in online servers desperately trying to keep a conversation going.

The aim of it is to cause a riot. The riot is usually caused by this phrase being spammed and people getting so pissed off it starts a riot.

For example:
A person named Wyatt on Discord (an application generally used for joining servers) wanted attention so he started spamming "we need a riot" which was indirectly saying "hey, I'm bored and alone, someone please notice me."
Wyatt: We need a riot!
Other members: no
Moderators: no
Admins: no
Owner: no
Wyatt: yes
