Not always. You can have connotation with or without propaganda. "Frugal" and "miserly" both refer to someone who is likely to save the money he gets, but each word has a connotation. A "frugal" person is careful not to waste his money. A "miserly" person is assumed to keep more than he needs to keep because he doesn't want anybody else to get any of it. Either of these could be a simple opinion about an individual. But if someone speaks of miserly heirs to inherited fortunes, it might be considered propaganda as it paints a whole group of people as greedy.
The word "cheap," on the other hand, has a negative connotation and is often seen as an insult. Like thrifty, however, cheap also describes someone who does not spend money lavishly, but it is usually associated with a miserly, stingy person. Negative connotation can depend on individual perception as well.
