I kind of thought it was an overblown stereotype, but upon moving out west I've found out that Native Americans really are complete drunks. Hell the stereotype doesn't go far enough if anything.

Your experience with Native Americans appears to be isolated and based on anecdotal evidence. It is important to consider why stereotypes exist and the context and power dynamics that create an environment that perpetuates them. The history of alcohol consumption among Native Americans in particular, is often marked by oppression, forced removal from traditional homelands, and limited access to resources - which likely contributes to higher rates of alcoholism. These socioeconomic factors should be taken into consideration when understanding the prevalence of drunkenness and the stereotypes that accompany it.
