Rebels are able to use techniques that a government never could or would. I think you underestimate the usefulness of small arms in guerilla warfare.

You underestimate the nasty things goverments have done.
I think you underestimate the lethality of remotely piloted drones with missiles and IR cameras and the futility of fighting against them.
You can pretty easily build / buy these. Look at Ukraine. Lots of their drones were just off the shelf. Jamming is super directional and easy to spot so fighting forces use it sparingly.
The Taliban would argue otherwise.
