The actress ends up playing an actual religious authoritarian in Star Trek DS9. Disguising herself behind the veneer of moral purity to hide her corrupt lust for power, conceded self importance, and oppressive dogmatism. Even fooling herself into believing that she's not the true villain of the series who's even more hated than Gul Dukat.

I think something he missed at the end there, though he touched on it a touch with the mention of them gambling, is that the patients are more free than before because McMurphy took away the source of Ratched's power: her voice. Notice how she's almost more docile in the end. She's less authoritative and thus the patients don't take her quite as seriously.

With this episode, I think 'Earthling Cinema' has finally found its beat. The editing style, the gags, the analysis - it all feels together and right. I can't really explain it, but keep building on what you're doing here - you've got something that can meet the promise of 'Thug Notes.'
