What Does This Mean?
"Reee" (often stretched to "REEEE" or "REEEEE") is an onomatopoeic scream/keysmash-style interjection representing incoherent rage or frustration. It is strongly associated with the "Angry Wojak"/"Autistic Screeching" reaction-image format, in which a screeching Wojak figure visually embodies the sound.

REAL-WORLD EXAMPLE
"He didn't get the last slice of pizza and just started typing REEEEE in the group chat."
LORE & ORIGIN
The term emerged on 4chan's /r9k/ board around December 2014 as part of a series of Wojak-variant "screeching" reaction images depicting inarticulate rage. It functions as a general-purpose expression of frustration used across many unrelated contexts and communities, and is not itself an inherently political term despite later cross-posting into more political boards.
