It's a little late to decide that, isn't it? There haven't been either Patriots or Loyalists since the end of the Revolution in the 1780s. If I lieved at that time, I might be a Loyalist if I wanted to remain part of the British Empire and I would be a Patriot if I didn't.
During World War II, individuals who betrayed their countries or collaborated with enemy forces were often referred to as "traitors." In specific contexts, those who collaborated with Nazi Germany, such as the Vichy regime in France, were sometimes called "collaborators." Additionally, the term "Quisling" emerged from the actions of Norwegian politician Vidkun Quisling, who collaborated with the Nazis, and has since become synonymous with traitor or collaborator.
It depended on the era. For example, during World War II, the British referred to traitors and collaborators as "quislings." During the Revolutionary War, the American colonists fighting for independence were in fact still British, but the government called the ones who remained loyal to the King "loyalists" and the ones who wanted independence "rebels," which was not a word with positive connotations.

During World War II, various groups and individuals were seen as traitors in their own countries, often for collaborating with enemy forces. For example, in occupied countries like France and the Netherlands, those who collaborated with Nazi Germany, such as members of the Vichy regime or pro-German sympathizers, were labeled as traitors. Additionally, in the United States, individuals like the Japanese Americans who were unjustly interned were sometimes viewed with suspicion, despite their loyalty to the country. Similarly, in the Soviet Union, those who were accused of aiding the Nazis faced severe repercussions and were branded as traitors.
