Nurse Ratched
In chapter 7 of "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest," McMurphy and the other patients go on a fishing trip with Chief Bromden. McMurphy displays his rebellious and free-spirited nature by taking risks and challenging Nurse Ratched's authority. The chapter ends with a sense of camaraderie and empowerment among the patients as they defy the rules of the institution.
Maxwell Taber was a patient who questioned Nurse Ratched by asking what medication he was being given. While reminising, Nurse Ratched refers to him as being a "ward manipulator". As a result of the questioning Nurse Ratched treated Taber with electro shock therapy and he was left docile. He is consider to be one of the hospitals success cases.

No as she is just part of the combine and the combine represents society. Kesey doesn't hate women like Nurse Ratched but instead blames the bigger society that forces her to be cruel and emasculate to keep her power and feel ashamed of being a women.
McMurphy ultimately chose not to escape because he felt responsible for the other patients in the ward, particularly Chief Bromden. He wanted to continue standing up to Nurse Ratched and help his fellow inmates, even at the cost of his own freedom. Additionally, McMurphy's character valued rebellion and challenging authority, so staying in the hospital became a way for him to continue defying the oppressive system.
