During the American Revolution, several groups did not support the king, including Loyalists (or Tories) who remained loyal to British rule, and many Native American tribes who sought to protect their lands from encroachment by colonial settlers. Additionally, some enslaved individuals sided with the British in hopes of gaining freedom, and certain religious groups, such as Quakers, opposed the conflict based on their pacifist beliefs. Moreover, various disenfranchised individuals and marginalized communities felt that the revolution did not address their rights or needs.

loyalists, patriots, and redcoats
During the American Revolution, various Native American groups chose to support the Americans, notably the Oneida and Tuscarora tribes, who allied with the Continental Congress. These tribes sought to protect their lands and autonomy against British encroachment. However, many other tribes, like the Mohawks and Senecas, sided with the British, hoping to preserve their territory from American expansion. The involvement of Native Americans in the revolution was complex, reflecting diverse interests and strategic considerations.
Some Native Americans supported the colonists during the American Revolution due to their desire for autonomy and the hope that the colonists would provide them with greater freedom from British control. Additionally, some tribes believed that aligning with the colonists could help them secure land rights and protect their territories from encroaching settlers. The promise of independence and the potential for a more favorable relationship with the new American government also motivated certain Native American groups to support the revolutionary cause.

During the American Revolution, there were three different groups: The Patriots were for the Revolution, the Loyalists were against the revolution, and the Neutralists didn't care. I don't know what fraction, but I bet the Loyalists took up a large portion of the people against the Revolution.
