How does society trick the Savage in "Brave New World"?Please a summerized answer for the question Chapter 18

The Brave New World tricks John by letting him believe he
is free to come and go in society as he pleases. However, when he wants to go to the
free islands with his friends Bernard and Helmholtz, Mustafa Mond refuses telling him
that the "experiment" isn't over.


John is not a welcome
guest, but an experimental rat being moved about by the leaders to study what happens
when an unconditioned person enters into the conditioned
world.


He is allowed to go by himself to the lighthouse to
live out his days (or so he thinks). The media is allowed to find him and make movies
about him so the rest of society shows up to harass him.


In
short, the Brave New World drove John to his death by forcing the dystopia on
him.
