Do normal imperial citizens know about chaos and daemons, or is chaos hidden from them

As of Pariah, the Scholams still teach about the 9 sons who stood by their father (the emperor) against his fallen 9 sons.
So We should dig deeper into this.

IMHO, they know very little; they aren't stupid, they are just pretendidng to be stupid (out of fear)...
Look how much inquisitors have cases with ordinary people (merchants,governors),I mean, it is impossible to hide everything

ADB: I showed the Wolves revealing the key weakness at the heart of the World Eaters; showing Angron that his Legion was broken and worthless compared to the others; that he was the one primarch who couldn't trust his own warriors, and that they didn't care if he lived or died; showing that loyalty to brothers and sons is the heart of success for the Legiones Astartes, to the point even Lorgar makes a big deal out of saying the World Eaters and their primarch were massively outclassed by Russ, and Angron was too stupid to see the lesson Russ had sacrificed time, sweat, and blood, to teach. We're talking about a battle the Wolves won, by isolating the enemy general through pack tactics, and threatening to kill him, without a hope of defending himself. It was a balance, 50/50 - Angron overpowered Russ, and the Wolves were losing ground to the World Eaters; but Russ and his warriors had Angron by the balls, and barely broke a sweat. They won, no question. Lorgar even says: "The Wolves won, meathead."

Dorn won’t help you either. He’s too busy being the Emperor’s groundskeeper, hiding behind the palace walls. The Wolf is too busy cutting off heads as our father’s executioner, while the Lion holds on to his secrets, and has no special fondness for you. Who else will come? Not Ferrus, certainly. Nor Corax either. Even as we speak, I suspect he flees for Deliverance. Sanguinius?’ Curze laughed cruelly. ‘The angel is more cursed than I. The Khan? He does not wish to be found. So who is left? No one, Vulkan. None of them will come. You are simply not that important. You are alone.’ Konrad Curze to Vulkan

They would literally go insane, if they found out. They would know that they are all doomed and go batsh*t crazy.

Chaos/Daemons are known only be the most highest ranked Imperial leaders. I'm talking Inquisition, Grey Knights, Space Marine Commanders, and the High Lords of Terra. I doubt anyone past that is allowed to know.

My Armies:
5,500pts
2,700pts
2,000pts

Fact - every SM know about chaos
- chaos reveals itself to common folk often (check "Thorn and Talon")
- what about cults ??? They exists,do they ?

This changes depending on the author. As of the Grey Knights codex, knowledge of daemons is need to know, as in you only know as long as you need to and get mind wiped afterwards.

Yes, which is why the Inquisition exists. They hunt down those that daemons attempt to influence.
- what about cults ??? They exists,do they ?

Cults are the result when
1. the Inquisition fails and the corrupt person succeeds in both spreading their knowledge to others and getting them to join them.
2. the world has been isolated from the Imperium for years anyway and exposed to the Warp.
3. pre-existing traitors start cults to undermine the Imperium. The Word Bearers and Alpha Legion like doing this.

Arguing with some people is like playing chess with a pigeon. You can play the best chess in the world, but at the end of the day the pigeon will still knock all the pieces off the board and then gak all over it.
