The Savage Reservation

The people on the reservation are considered savages. Do you think they really are? Why or why not?

  1. To the people in the "new world" like lenina yes they would be savages, but in there own minds they are not because that is how they were raised and the way they live now is all that they know. the true savage at the reservation is Linda especailly to the residants.

  2. The people on the reservation seem like savages to the people in the Brave New World because they stay with one person, don't sleep around, and look old and different. But to us they seem normal and the people from the Brave New World visiting the reservation seem like savages, or Linda who was left there seems like a savage. She breaks up relationships and sleeps around with a bunch of different people.

  3. i think that the people at the reservation are not savages the people from the New World think that because that is the way they have been brought up so they think everything that they do is weird because they dont sleep around or anything like Lenina was thought to do

  5. I thinks that they'are Savages because they where raised like that but in the second thought they don't know that because they are control by soma.

  6. i would say that they are savages because they live in poverty and they dont take care of themselves. They are kept from leaving by having electrical fences. Lenina and Bernard think they are savages because they have babies the old fashioned way. If they went to the new world they wouldnt get to keep their religion.

  7. Yes, they would be, but not in the brave new world but some people want to be because they want to keep their own ways and there own religious

  8. I think that the people at the reservation are considered savarages because they can give birth the old fashion way and to keep them from leaving the reservation they are stop by electrical fences, which I think this is "Cruel." These people believe that they are indians because they are in the reservation but John the son of the Director of H.D.C is not a Indian.

  9. In my own eyes i do consider the people on the reservation savages because of their poor lifestyle and have babies the old way. Also, there are electrical fences that keep them from escaping the reservation which is very controling. The way it is at the reservation is uncivilized and rugged so i do believe they are savages.

  10. I disagree with lacey on this because they are basicly just like us right now they have babies the same way people have babies today and besides the electric fence surrounding the reservation its just like an native american city. The only reason there poor is because the controlers think they are unfit to live a better life

  11. I think that the people on the reservation are savages in a way but are just like the people in our society in another way. The thing that makes them all savages is the fact that the people on the reservation allow the controlers to control them. By obeying the controlers rules and allowing them to put up electric fences to keep them in one place. However, the thing that makes them just like the people in our society and makes them not savages, is the fact that they do have long lasting relationship with only one person. If it were me, I would not want to live the way the people on the reservation live. I would not want to be controled by anyone putting up electrical fences to keep me in one place. I would fight to be my own individual. Which I think the people on the reservation should do, they should fight to be their own individual and not put up with being treated like savages.

  12. The people in the savage reservation are only considered salvages because their ways of living are so taboo to those of the citizens within the Brave New World. They are not actually salvages, they are just called salvages because they are so different from the world in which they live.

  13. Savage is not only an opinion it is relitive. Compared to our socioty the brave new world are savages. but compared to another socioty we are savages. savage is only a comparison to the observers norm.

  14. I agree with Will S.. Anything that is not "normal" to the way people were brought up thier opinion will differ from other people. So to Lennia the people living on the reservation are "savages", but when john came back the the Brave New World they way they lived was "savage" like. So depending on where you were brought up or who you were brought up by, your opinion depends on that.

  15. I believe that to the people in the brave new world they are savages. Just like the people in the brave new world are "savages" to us. Anybody who's different may be considered a "savage" to the rest of the world. It's a matter of opinion, and everyone has different opinions.

  16. will and elizabeth i agree with you all the way but here is another example when some one is brought up in a gang infested neighborhood it a 99.99% chance the going to grow up to be in a gang and also with a family member thats in the gang would play a big roll

  17. No, i don't believe these people are savages because it would be like indians in our world. we modernized people look at these indians just as the people of the world society look at the savages. these people shouldnt be looked down upon but accepted and recognized for their differences because we have a born right to be who we want and how can 1 group classify another when they only know theirs.

  18. well to the lenina and bernard, they are, but on the other side, lenina and everyone else are thought to be inferior.

  19. The people on the reservation are not savages. The people of the New World consider them savages because they are different and they do not understand them. People from the new world such as lenina, cannot even comprehend the emotions, such as love and anger, felt by John. Everyone in the New World is the same, they look the same, have the same conditioning, and live the same day to day lifestyle. Savages are diverse, passionate, and unique; three things the people of the New World knows nothing about.

  20. The people from the New World are decanted so through this process they teach them on how to live their lives, so they have taught them that these outsiders "savages" are people that commit to other humans, and create lasting relationships instead of their concept that ''everyone belongs to everyone else.'' But the truthis that to us they're not savages they are the closest thing to normal and to reality from that book.

  21. In the book "Brave New World" yes they would be savages. Because the world is diffrent and they dont want people running wild and there not condition to live in the new world. they have natural birth and the people in the new world is botteled so there both diffrent.

  22. In the minds of the people in the brave new world, the people in the savage reservation are savages because they dont sleep around and take somma. I think that the people in the savage reservation are not savages but normal people and the people in the brave new world are the real savages.

  23. I agree with Sex Panther i dont beleive everyone is a savage i think everyone is normal and the same as everyone else except for their addiction to soma... thats not normal

  24. You can call someone a savage just because they don't do the things you do. The term "savage" is opinionated. Therefore, someone with two computers could call someone with a single computer a savage. It means nothing other than that your different.

  25. I think they are savages because of the way they live. They live like animals with dead animals in the streets and women acting like whores.

  26. I don't believe that they are savages i just believe that they would be considered average or normal people in are world today.The people in the savage reservation had the morals of the world we live in now. They believe in only having one person to date and also they believe in love.
