Newly released files show how Maria Farmer, who worked for Mr. Epstein in the 1990s, had urged the F.B.I. to investigate him. The case went nowhere for years.

I am not aware that they thought of themselves as actual traitors. They did understand that they were viewed as traitors by the Crown, and would be executed as such, but of course the enemy thought they were traitors. Who fucking cares what the enemy thinks?
Bottom line is that history does not record them as traitors, any more than any oppressed people who rise up and reclaim their country are traitors.
Humans are under no obligation to remain loyal to a government that abuses and oppresses them. In cases like that, those who abuse the government for their personal benefit, at the expense of the people, are the real traitors.
