When the control works only in one direction it is always bad. That is Scientology. Students have no control they may only be controlled. Preclears have no control, they must comply. You could say that auditors control the preclear but they must only comply with the C/S, if they don't -- off to Qual or worse. Staff have no control over how they do their jobs -- it must only be Hubbard's way. The lower conditions and RPF are there solely to enforce compliance.
What part of Scientology allows independence? What part allows rebellion? What part allows doubt? What part allows questions?
Once a Scientologist shows independence, rebellion, doubt and starts asking questions, they are automatically in deep trouble. They either stop such nonsense and comply or they are declared "Suppressive". That is Scientology. Read KSW#1.
It's lovely that you "have no problem being controlled". But "being controlled" is only acceptable if you have a choice. In Scientology, you have no choice.
Here is Hubbard’s spiel on how being able to control requires being able to be controlled. I challenge anyone to show where Hubbard or Scientology is subject to control by Scientologists. It is all a one way flow. But once Scientologists adopt this philosophy they do become much more pliable to Scientology and the process being described here actually drills controlling Scientologists and accepting being controlled by Scientologists. These drills were often done for hours and now as part of the Survival Rundown I’m reading Op Pro By Dup can take 60 mind numbing indoctrinating dissociating hours! Don’t think with Hubbard’s ideology about “Control” people.

START-CHANGE-STOP
(Refer to “Clear Procedure” by L. Ron Hubbard)
Start, change and stop is the anatomy of control. This is a cycle of action -- create, survive, destroy. There is continue (persist) on the middle of the curve and other cycles within cycles of action, but the important factors are Start, Change and Stop.
Running Start, Change and Stop on an individual brings about greater self- determinism.
Self-determinism in the field of motion consists of, by own power of choice, permitting the object or body to be still or not to be still; permitting a thing to be changed or not to be changed; permitting a thing to be started or not to be started, and it must be rehabilitated in the preclear. In other words, self-determinism consists here of returning the preclear's power of choice over controlling or not controlling at will. The preclear who is obsessively controlling will sooner or later fail to control and then will be controlled by something. The obsession to control, to start, to change, to stop, will be found to enter into the ARC triangle and is what depresses the preclear down scale on the Tone Scale.
These three parts of control are run flat individually, in this order: we run Change flat, and then run Start again very flat and then we run Stop flat. It would be a mistake at this point to say that this process is finished for the excellent reason that if you run Change again you would find further considerations shifting in the preclear and then if you run Start you would find it unflattened. So you would run it again and then run and flatten Stop.
It would not be possible to say how long you would have to run the process altogether. On somebody who was total machinery and who never had been in session, this would be a rough process. On a case that is in good condition, this would run easier. The preclear would consider it interesting and would exteriorize quite easily. The end result of this process is exteriorization. For someone who is compulsively exteriorized, this would be excellent as he would slide into his head and eventually come out of it again, but not on a compulsive basis.
One meets with three conditions in auditing. The preclear who is compulsively interiorized, the preclear who is compulsively exteriorized and the preclear who is buttered all over the universe. The latter case, run on C-S-C would greatly accumulate the ability to collect himself. This might not occur until you have run him for five or more hours on it.
If this process is continued long enough the preclear will be moving his body by postulate -- i.e., from the outside, not by beams, stimulus response, etc.
This process does not go all the way up because of the preclear's attention span. Most preclear's cannot stay on a process for more than a few moments, so you would vary the process a little to keep him interested. His actual response, however, is not important as long as he does it.
There is no such thing as bad control, only non-positive control. Good control is positive control and positive control is not bad control.
