Why does freedom become a tragedy?

What is McMurphy's projection in reality?
He is an asshoie who has made you mad over and over again. When you scold them as scum, there will be no sympathy between words.
Compared to freedom, people want security more. So they sent him into the high wall for their safety.
But when McMurphy was tortured by the lunatic asylum, everyone suddenly became his close comrade-in-arms, hoping for "freedom" with him, planning a perfect escape.
It's weird.
Why does freedom become a tragedy?
Because you are the lock.
