The issue of 'mind control' is too jumbled up, and complicated to be discussed effectively or efficiently. In the first place 'mind control' is an individual's activity on himself then on others, and the fear of being controlled by others is a fear that seems to be driven by a desire to keep a status quo that's morbid in essence - a mind that seeks to dominate others.
Apparently, terms used are emotionally loaded, and obstruct clear thinking.
