From what I have read in the Night Lords trilogy, the Horus Heresy is little more than a myth to the ordinary Imperial citizen. Not just that, but the traitor primarchs, the traitor marines, & such like are all viewed as just a half-remembered legend, greatly glossed over & with none of the details of how it all started (for obvious reasons). For example, it describes the Chaos Space Marines as the Emperor's 'fallen angels', but nothing more than that.
