Story Mode Controversy --REDUX

[Kalen]

The "Casino Indian" trope typically presents Native American casino "owners" (or perhaps an "Indian Chief" character) as greedy and taking things from White people. In dramas, the "chief" or "owner" works with organized crime, or sometimes runs organized crime.

Also, I hate to tell you.... but anyone that runs a casino, regardless of their ethnicity, is doing it out of greed. They're actively trying to take money out of the hands of the gamblers.... as they should be, if they want the casino to stay in business.

Well... I haven't seen most of whats on those lists.... and the things I have seen don't fit the trope at all.

But you see how the Duke does fit the trope, right?

Making money is not the same thing as being greedy. Unless it's considered greedy for Native Americans to want things like functioning schools and hospitals, they're not operating casinos because they're greedy.
