There is a difference in the connotation of the words.
It is the attempts to dominate each others' lives that, generally, lead to some of the most heinous acts on the face of the planet. Sometimes, it can even be difficult to see that what we are doing is attempting to dominate - especially if it is out of concern for someone or something. We allow our ideas of what we believe is in the best interest of whomever/whatever to determine our actions without considering the larger picture.
And, other times, you just have people who want to have control over everything because, clearly, other people should just do what they say.
The unforgivable part of that is those who just decide that they are more important than any other person on the planet. That is a conscious rejection of the existence of others' perceptive experience and a conscious decision that one's own is the only thing that matters.
