In general, Royalists supported the power of King and Parliament to legislate all matters of colonial government. They say their opponents as traitors.

In general those we now call Patriots were opposed to the way King and Parliament legislated all manner of colonial government matters, particularly taxation, and cam to support the Independence from the United Kingdom of the 13 colonies.
