You know what is an example of propaganda/advertising? Peta, extinction rebellion et al antics. Marching for right to bear arms. Standing outside of Tesla dealers dissuading shoppers. Militancy, activism in general. At this stage of society I too think having less of any of this is good. It's a shame there's no ad blockers for militancy. The chance to achieve consensus on this is 0, so we will be left with propaganda to try to shift public opinion towards censuring one militancy over another
You seem to have mentioned pretty much the only things that I think are worth keeping under your definition of "advertising".
(Noting that the extremities of some of those examples are already illegal)
It does highlight, however, that a shared definition of a spectrum of what "advertising" actually means, is the first step towards being able to exploit whatever rules the politicians decide upon.
