When people say Nurse Ratched was "only doing her job" i wonder if "doing her job" includes power tripping and threatening shock treatment if McMurphy doesn't "own up" to his "sins (beating up aides who were themselves abusing their power)". Should we meekly submit to the status quo if it's hurting the vulnerable?

There's only a notion of freedom, only a notion of caring, when the underlying motive of it all is control. There is a horror in having an emotion be dismissed nonchalantly

People who think Nurse Ratched was just misunderstood didn't read this scene

Decided to reread this book after seeing plenty of people trash on this book on Tiktok 🤭
