  1. Great analysis. Haven't we all known a Nurse Ratched? There are male and female versions to be found, usually in some position of power, in every family and every workplace. Nurse Ratched is one of the most terrifying villains of fiction, because such monsters exist in every real, everyday situation and environment. You'll encounter a Nurse Ratchet in pretty much every human group dynamic. Their manipulative conduct means they will always fool some of the people, some of the time, so they sail through life achieving the prize they set out to - status and power over other human beings. In Nazi Germany, 'Nurse Ratcheds' thrived running concentration camps where they could fully indulge their cruellest impulses against other humans. In a more civilised society, they will find themselves a niche that allows them to control others. They hide their ruthless, self-serving impulses behind a pleasant, even friendly exterior, armed with a stated respect for 'fairness' or 'the rules', they slyly play people off against each other, and are masters of the 'divide and rule' model to retain their privileged position in the group. They are the embodiment of the phrase 'The banality of evil'. In 2022 the term 'narcissistic abuse' is thrown around so often, it's almost become meaningless. Nurse Ratchet was an early and now iconic example of such an abuser. Her narcissism and ego are off the scale, but cleverly masquerade as professionalism, even-handedness, and even benevolent concern for the well being of others. But of course such abusers have only one priority - themselves. And serving their own desires requires them to seek power and control over others - in their most intimate relationships with partners and family members, and on a professional setting with work colleagues both superiors and subjugates. 'One Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest' is a profound movie that should be shown to teenage kids at every school, as a textbook example of the destructive power of narcissistic abuse. Oh, and there's no question how Randle McMurphy's final, barbaric lobotomy happened - it was Nurse Ratched's doing, no question!
