I’d define propaganda as misconstruing the truth towards political ends. If it’s commercial ends rather than political, it’s false advertising. If it’s not misconstruing, then it’s advertising or public communications. Just to set a baseline.
I can’t find what your sources are defining as propaganda from a brief look, let’s compare to my definition.
it doesn’t need to be misconstrued. the best propaganda imho is totally true and in context. spreading it with some kind of political goal is still propaganda.
I have seen them, and the government is the bad guy, with the overreach of public surveillance being major topic. You’ll need to be more specific, but that would probably entail watching them.

Cool, I wouldn’t call that propaganda, but we can work with that.
Do the Captain America movies have an irl political goal? What would it be?
I haven’t seen them, but I do know they work with the pentagon, so my guess is they aim to legitimize American hegemony and military spending

I have no interest though. do you have a point?
It doesn’t seem to fit with the criteria of being for political ends, so it wouldn’t be propaganda.
not having seen it, I obviously can’t tell you what is messages are.
So I don’t think it should be on this list, and I guess you don’t disagree.
