Why do people think mind control is "bad"?

Here's a question for you: 
Why do people think mind control is "bad"? 

People shudder at the thought of mind control because they live under the belief that there is a "free will". They are scared to think that they don't have control. Yet the truth is we never have complete control. 

Being the beasties that we are we've lived, died and evolved based on what gives us the most control. Control is important, vital to our survival, self image and self esteem. But, in many cases control is an illusion. 

There are levels to how much control we do have and the things within our control. And while we don't have control in many areas we will often deny that fact with a passion. 

Being able to Control our own thoughts and emotions is one of the most difficult things anyone can do. But those individuals who know how people respond and react use that knowledge to control and manipulate us all the time. That's why advertising is such a big industry. 

While mind control may be an unpleasant fact it isn't "bad" because as human beings wanting control we will resort to anything that gives themselves an advantage. 

One factor in our evolution is determined by how much more in control we become. Perhaps the next level of evolution is to know that we can be controlled and are always under some subtle influence without our knowing.




How would we begin to evolve if instead of fighting the fact that we are subject to mind control we accepted it? This would be the difference between working to understand our limitations and denying them. 

This is a fundamental difference between me and the PCT (Paranoid Conspiracy Theorists). For me that we are subject to mind control creates awe, not fear. 

To make a personal evolution of sorts, the only thing you can do is know that people are using mind control on us all the time and try to be aware of it. We should also be aware that most of the mind control is so well executed it will likely pass right by us without even a warning. 

On an individual level we should also use what we know of mind control to your advantage. This means making an effort to understand human psychology and our own personal psychology. Only then can we truly evolve beneath the omnipresent specter of mind control.
