[DC] Is the Anti Life Equation just an advance form mind control? And why are some resistant/immune to it?

I know Anti-Life Equation is a mathematical formula that proves life is hopeless and meaningless but after reading Final Crisis the Anti-Life Equation seams to just be another form of mind control, is that all it does? 

Also some individuals like Metron, Static, Flash, etc seems to have varying degree of resistance to it, why?

Yeah, basically. Darkseid wants it because he fundamentally *is* on a certain level that principle. He is Tyranny, he is senselessness. A being under the influence of the Anti-Life equation is an extension of him.

It also has a counterpart, a life equation, a fundamental proof that life is meaningful and boundless. Metron understands this on a level that almost no other being can and is immune. The Speed Force is in some ways an extension of the same principles and protect the Flash. As for Static, not sure there.
