    Depends. Does propaganda have to be untrue or wrong in some way? If not, they’re definitely political messages that are widely displayed for persuasive purposes, which is the rest of the definition of propaganda. If so, propaganda is relative to what you believe anyway.

    Most people never fully believe anything about the big picture, which is frustrating as hell in good(-ish) times, but in really bad times becomes a grain of hope.
