Yes. All media are mind control.
Our perceptions are evolved biologically to perceive things certain ways in relation to a natural environment consisting of natural cues.
By focusing and forcing an unnatural and concentrated stream of sensations about incidental realities toward us in the midst of a mediated environment, all media engage us in manipulative ways.
The imprecise "disproofs" of "subliminal perception" are opposed even to other "scientifically verified" research in the "psychological sciences" - known as "peripheral learning." The definition of peripheral learning is very close to the concept of subliminal persuasion. Peripheral learning is a part of the academic syllabus of a degree in education (another pseudo-science- but with a far longer tradition of erudition than the very brief history of human psychology).
Back to the main thrust. First, I said nothing so simple as could be compared to saying some birds are black, therefore all birds are black. It's apples and oranges, there.
To state my assertion most simply, it is this:
all culture is mind control.
Thanks for the interesting comments!
P.S. The word "BREAST" is both survival-oriented and sexually perceived. Words are perceived according to the particular mind-set of the reader. We see what we want to see - and one of the things we are most powerfully motivated by is our desire...
