They did, didn't they?
Isn't that one of the things Saw brings up in his conversation with Luthen in series 1 of Andor?
Saw brings them up along with a bunch of other rebel-sympathizing factions, but in a derogatory fashion. CIS worlds were the first ones to get beaten down by the Empire in the aftermath of the Clone War, and those systems were definitely a hotbed of pro-rebellion sentiment. The problem is, the bulk of their military resources during the war were goddamned fucking battle droids, so they didn't have much in the way of battle-hardened freedom fighters lining up to do pew pew laser things.
Severe asset underutilization on the rebel's part tbh, they could have an entire legion of box-stackers if they wanted
Wilmon's dad was a Separatist sympathizer, that's how he met with luthen and got his radio equipment. Cassian was also a CIS partisan in the old lore too
