The Loyalists believed that unfair taxes and laws didn't justify a rebellion. Some people didn't suffer from the British policies s they didn't see a reason to break with Britain. Some other people also thought that Britain would win the war and they didn't want to be n the losing side
The Patriots however supported the war. They believed that Colonists had the right to govern themselves and they were determined to fight the British until Independence was won.
Hope this Helps!
