Favorite method of mind control?

[Meesteres]

Hey yo

I was wondering what the community's favorite method of mind control was. (purely with machines etc)

I prefer the magical/force approach. Just thinking about it / casting a spell / waving a hand (these are not the droids you're looking for) / that kind of stuff...

Telepathic mind control. Because it has greater possibilities--behavior modification,amplification of emotions, altering memories, beliefs and thoughts, etc. The MC could be a mutant, an alien or have gotten the abilities through experiments or an accident. Using drugs, machines or jewelry seems a bit clunky to me. Magic spells aren't that much different from telepathic or spoken mind control. Hypnosis also seems a bit clunky. Parasites or nanomachines aren't clunky, but control seems less refined to me. I like nuance in my mind control! ;p

I don't care as long as its actual mind control and not just body control

Fucking sadistic question- I like implanted machine

I mean, is the mechanical method of how it happens really that important? Doesn't it end up being a question of how it's implemented? Is it implemented as suggestion or mesmerism, where the victim is more or less fooled into thinking that they're coming up with the idea on their own? Is it out-and-out control, where the victim more or less ends up losing agency and just doing exactly what the controller wants them doing? In that case, is the victim aware of what's happening, or do they just sorta black out and then "wake up" with their mouth full of semen? Does the victim get to keep their identity, or is it simply overwritten so that they're more or less made into a puppet?

I imagine pretty much every approach has its fans, depending on what exactly they're looking for in their control porn.

For me, personally, I guess my answer pretty much contradicts the whole thrust of my post: it's only important to me insofar as it isn't mechanically implemented in a way that is so eye-rolling that it's distracting: like the cartoony swirly-eye hypnosis idea, that's just stupid.

hey man, swirly eyes and heart eyes are awesome

Heart pupils conveying the idea of pleasure or eroticism are okay. I'm complaining about the Western cartoon meme for the actual hypnosis happening, with the hypnotist nose-to-nose with the victim and the little pink spirals in both their eyes. It just feels... I dunno. Silly. Dunno what makes it feel more silly than heart pupils.

(FFX-style deformed pupils are kinda goofy, though. Slit pupils like a fox's or a cat's are fine, or even a goat's weird horizontal pupils thing. I've seen cross-shaped pupils and those were eye-rolling. I guess I'm really picky when it comes to eyes.)

I for one will be amazed at how to control someone without magic, contraptions, or even the use of drug, hypnotism, and blackmail. Something close to reality... Like, assessing the target's behaviour then psyche/bait her out to it. But if you're not much of a planner, then it's hypnotism like, whispering while she's half-asleep. Or screw around with her device in her sleep-learning sessions (shrugs)

Well, there is Neurolinguistic Programming, which is pseudoscience, but one tenet of the system, adopted by the pickup crowd, is that careful use of suggestive language including body language, plus mirroring the gestures of the target, can influence and persuade people to do things they wouldn't normally do. Not mind control but a kind of waking hypnosis. Ross Jeffries claims it works, so who knows?

Well, it'll require the mc to be a doctor with that approach so it wont fit for any story. How about this... Some average-but-smartass joe watched a yt video about street hypnotism... He saw some potential about the finger gun. Then he knew about his sister's mp3 player that she uses on her sleep-learning sessions and ding! He had an idea

He edited the recording and placed a finger gun command somewhere in the middle of the record. And now, everytime he points his finger gun at his sister... Bang! She's under subconscious state and she's yours to command.
