During the revolutionary war loyalists and patriots most disagreed about wether

Patriots were against the taxation system imposed on all colonies by Britain and claimed their representation within the British parliament. Conversely, loyalists believed in the strength of a unified empire and insisted that independence from Britain would have led to great economic losses and military insecurity.

They disagreed over Britain's rule completely, but more specifically the taxation from the faraway country.

As inferred by the names, loyalists were the people who "loyal" to britain, they lived in the colonies but still felt they were citizens of and ruled by britain. meanwhile the patriots were for an independent nation.

The loyalists felt it fair all the taxation from their home, but patriots felt it completely unfair as it was far away.

I'd also like to say how though we all know of the taxation's during the revolutionary periods, no one seems to think much of - why-. Britain was in extreme debt, beginning to crumble, after fighting and losing multiple wars. they lost a ton after fighting the French and Indian War, the Seven Years War. Then they had the American Revolution, they lose and fall even further. Then the French follow the Americans with the French Revolution (which ultimately, yes, was a flop) and Britain had to fight that too.
