My Airbnb rental had ‘diabolical’ decor — worried fans say ‘run girl’

It’s décor to deplore.

Bushels of cotton. Monkeys hanging from tree limbs. And a mounted dead deer. 

The no-good home goods adorned a now-disentitled rental property, which has been deemed “wicked” and “diabolical” for its racially offensive overtones. 

“Southern Airbnb core,” wrote Erica Watkins, 23, a beauty content creator, in the closed captions of a buzzy bulletin. 

Visuals of foul furnishings scared up a staggering 2.2 million TikTok views from outraged critics, who condemned the unidentified homeowners for trivializing historically harmful injustices against Black Americans. 

Cotton virtually symbolizes slavery in the US. And the plushies dangling from trees mimic the many lynching murders of men, women and children of color.

“It’s giving ‘Get Out,’” spat an online onlooker, likening the distasteful trappings to director Jordan Peele’s 2019 race relations thriller. 

“They changed the décor JUST for you boo,” another wrote, warning Watkins — a Black woman — of the allegedly intentional abuse. 

“Run girl,” a concerned commenter encouraged. 

Unfortunately, insulting slights against specific communities continue to trend. 

Several staffers at Royall Elementary School in Florence, South Carolina were fired after dressing in stereotypical Mexican clothing and posing as Border Patrol agents during an on-campus event last week. 

And the ever-controversial “parody of the Last Supper” during the opening ceremonies of the Olympics — the taboo tableau that featured men in drag — ignited flames of fury from faith-based bodies worldwide. 

“There are 2.4 billion Christians on earth,” tweeted an incensed X user, “and apparently the Olympics wanted to declare loudly to all of them right out of the gate NOT WELCOME.”

This is crazy. Opening your event by replacing Jesus and the disciples at the The Last Supper with men in drag. There are 2.4 billion Christians on earth and apparently the Olympics wanted to declare loudly to all of them, right out of the gate

Watkins, too, felt she was person non-grata in the rental residence. 

The Gen Z ultimately (and safely) left the property — but not before reporting the incivilities to Airbnb headquarters. 

“Update,” Watkins wrote in the comments section of her post. “Airbnb reached out and removed the listing.”
