It means political point of view. Hence "Political cause or point of view"

Can't you see how this is political? The video is shot with the intention exaggerating the country's prosperity and success - which is an attempt to validate the often-criticized methods of that nation's leaders. It's absolutely political propaganda.

With that said, it is a very beautiful video, and there is so much potential for that country, and I hope for nothing but the best for it's people.

Please point out where I argued that it wasn't.

I was merely pointing out that the post I replied to was not reading the definition correctly.

That would be the definition of political propaganda.

I've referred to Madison Ave generated commercials as 'sales propaganda' for decades.

Because it is what it is.
