Black Lives Matter would be protesting, and Scrooge would say something like, "Maybe if you guys had jobs you wouldn't be out here! If he listened to the cop, he wouldn't have gotten shot!"
Scrooge would run into a trans woman and call him a he, and everyone would be like, "that's the wrong pronoun! It's a she! You're a mean old jerk!"
Tiny Tim would be in a homosexual relationship with another boy who expresses interested in getting married, and Scrooge would say, "Marriage isn't for your kind, boy!"
At the end when Scrooge becomes a nice person, he'd say "Ahh, i shouldn't have said all those things."
Absolutely no mention of Christ like in the 50s version.
Then they'll say "Scrooge, I knew you were a sweet guy all along," Scrooge would say, "Guy? I'm gender fluid. This experience has taught me to be me true self. I go by they/them!"
Merry Christmas

And at the end, Scrooge would ask the boy in the street if that lovely tofu turkey was still in the shop window, and the lad would respond
"Bugger off, gramps! I don't eat that ****!"

I don't know, but I like the Muppets and Mickey.
I haven't watched enough to know.
There must be children.
