some of the conspiracy theories contain truths

the label of "conspiracy theory" or "propaganda" does not automatically make every element within a given claim false.

It is common for propaganda to embed a factual kernel to gain credibility. for example, claiming "The US has conducted surveillance on foreign leaders" was once dismissed as a "conspiracy theory" but was later proven true by Snowden documents.

Information used to manipulate is useless, trying to cherry pick what is “true” is absurd. It’s like seeking a mouldy bread just to try to pick the edible parts, instead of trying to get a proper loaf of bread.

If all given information is true, it is truth; if not, it is propaganda, manipulation, or false information

Mostly, you are right. If people are skeptical, if they are questioning what is true or false information. Double-checking by cross-referencing resources is always good.

Greece blocks the sanction, because it doesn't serve its interest

Maybe also add a flair which news is fabricated and what actually happened How will I determine which one was fabricated and which actually happened? Because even Reuters, BBC,dw news show propaganda or fabricated news.

A lot of “information” put on the internet isn’t “POV” but propaganda. That is true. But some of the propaganda contains truths.
