I mean, conservative voters don't really get that they're supporting wealthy people who hate them.

But in regards to the military, officers have always been more liberal and that's even more of a thing now. A lot of enlisted folks will just do what their CO says, especially if it doesn't involve going on the offensive. And since the liberal side would almost certainly be the defenders, that would further hurt rebel numbers.
