While you are technically correct, most of the examples you've mentioned have more appropriate descriptive words I'd say.

Nearly all advertising is propaganda.

But propaganda that forwards fascist goals and ideologies ARE bad, and will ALWAYS be bad.

You'll find no argument from me on these for sure lol

Problem is, factions we like also use propaganda and sometimes against us. I know everyone does it but I feel we should be above it. But then I am not a good pattern of brain to base general human behavior on.
