Sometimes the semantics are what's making things upsetting, IMO. And maybe someone who knows Joe well can see that sometimes he just writes a little fast-- such as above where he talks about controlling what's obnoxious. The Joe I know is too realistic to try to do THAT-- I THINK what he means is to control the resulting mess and damgages-- which is actually MANAGEMENT, something that any organized effort benefits from. The Joe I know is into pragmatic solutions, not abusive power moves. Controlling (containing) a situation is part of that, and it's not at all the same as controlling a PERSON.
