Exoteric is defined as, "intended for or likely to be understood by the general public."
Esoteric is defined as, "intended for or likely to be understood by only a small number of people with a specialized knowledge or interest."
Using these definitions it becomes clear what historical Paganism was. There were public temples, public sacrifices & rituals. Does this mean, high priests wouldn't have had specialized knowledge, of course not. Just as an expert blacksmith would have specialized knowledge about his craft. But the idea they hid away knowledge for only a select few is patently false.
There were Esoteric cults in the Pagan past, such as the Pythagoreans with a cult leader, abstaining from blood sacrifices, having secret rules, hidden clubs and secret handshakes inspiring the likes of free-masonry. Pagan peoples were highly against these.
In 508 bc, Cylon of Croton led Pagans to burn their houses, killing many and driving the rest to exile like Pythagoras himself.

The original Telegram channel has expanded into a web of accounts for different locations, including specific pages made for individual Russian cities. There's also an English-language website, which states it is owned by the people who run the Telegram channels. You may recall that, back when Facebook started changing WhatsApp’s terms of service, a number of news outlets reported on, and even recommended, switching to Telegram. Pavel Durov even said that users should delete WhatsApp “unless you are cool with all of your photos and messages becoming public one day.” But Telegram can’t be described as a more-secure version of WhatsApp. Given the pro-privacy stance of the platform, it’s taken as a given that it’ll be used for a number of reasons, not all of them good. And Telegram has been attached to a fair few scandals related to terrorism, sexual exploitation and crime. Back in 2015, Vox described Telegram as “ISIS’ app of choice,” saying that the platform’s real use is the ability to use channels to distribute material to large groups at once. Telegram has acted to remove public channels affiliated with terrorism, but Pavel Durov reiterated that he had no business snooping on private conversations. The regulator took order for the search and seizure operation from Judge Purushottam B Jadhav, Sebi Special Judge / Additional Sessions Judge. Messages are not fully encrypted by default. That means the company could, in theory, access the content of the messages, or be forced to hand over the data at the request of a government.
