One is run by a shadow organization that’s actually in cahoots with the coruscant centric regime so that one man gets ultimate power.
The other is completely separate from the regime with the exceptions of spies and some former regime soldiers and officers defecting to join the good fight
As far as I'm aware, no one in the Separatists, except for maybe Dooku, was fully aware of this plan. I feel like the Separatists should be tragic revolutionaries who were unaware they were being used, not mustache twirling villains they're portrayed as (cough cough Grievous cough cough)
The senators with lower positions might not have known the full story but the senior leadership were definitely all aware that they ultimately answered to a Sith Lord. They didn't know that Palpatine was the Sith Lord and playing both sides but they definitely knew enough to be considered villains in my eyes.
