The disagreement is about whether qualia exist enough to need explaining. A rainbow is ultimately explained as a kind of illusion, but to arrive at the explanation , you have to accept that they appear to exist, that people aren’t lying about them.
Dennett doesn’t just think you can be wrong about what’s going on in your mind, he thinks qualia don’t exist at all, and that he is zombie … but his opponents don’t all think that qualia are fundamental, indefinable, non physical etc. It’s important to remember that the camp #2 argument given here is very exagerated.
