Lady and the Tramp is a 1955 animated Disney Classic film. It tells the love story of two dogs - Lady, a cocker spaniel that lives with a human family, and the Tramp, who is a stray mutt.
The film itself is quite conservative. The film is pro-family and also displays chivalry, with the dogs doing whatever they can to protect the human baby from a vicious rat. In the end, he becomes faithful to her after deciding he doesn't want any other girlfriends or being promiscuous, and joins her human family, after which the two dogs start a family of their own. There are anti-environmental aspects as well, with the dogs learning to understand their place, that although humans come first they still have a place in their heart, as the beliefs Tramp had on humans being so cruel turned out to be false. Also, the iconic "Bella Notte" scene at an Italian restaurant where they accidentally kiss by eating the same spaghetti took place and was served by the kind-hearted capitalist restaurant owner Tony. On top of that, this movie is a rarity in Disney Animation to have Christmas depicted in the film and shown in a positive light.
A non-canonical sequel to this movie, the direct-to-video Lady and the Tramp II: Scamp's Adventure, was released by Disney in 2001, focusing on Lady and Tramp's son Scamp. A "woke", revisionist and soulless live-action remake of this movie was released on the Walt Disney Company's new video on demand service, Disney+, in November 2019.
Wikipedia, which is now well-known for being a leftist and woke propaganda tool (recognized also by Elon Musk and even by Larry Sanger, the co-founder of Wikipedia himself), committed (again) violation of its own rules on neutrality by writing that Lady and the Tramp is a racist movie with racist instead of racial stereotypes.
