How does Season of the Witch work with Propaganda and Crawlspace ? Does it kill all creatures that didn't attack or does it destroy none?

It interacts differently with each card. The current Oracle text for Season of the Witch reads, in part: "At the beginning of the end step, destroy all untapped creatures that didn't attack this turn, except for creatures that couldn't attack."
Propaganda specifically says "Creatures can't attack you unless..." This means if the optional cost wasn't paid for some creatures to allow them to attack, they couldn't attack. Season of the Witch will ignore those creatures.
Crawlspace creates an extra rule about what is considered a legal declaration of attackers. Any of the creatures that didn't attack could have attacked, they just weren't declared as attackers. Season of the Witch will kill those creatures.

yes, it kills all creatures that wouldn't attack. cards like Propaganda work separately, but synergistically, with each other. SO, your opponents do have a choice to attack, and they can choose not to attack, like normal. but if they don't, Season of the Witch kills all the creatures that didn't attack, like normal.
TL/DR: Propaganda doesn't change Season of the Witch 's effect.
