Not sure why you can't draw the parallel. For me it is all group-think type of thinking "we need to make something about it". Sure, some situations are more justified than others, but to me this all reminds of the same kind mentality.

Climate activists destroying paintings, making micro or macro aggression will annoy people more than focus on the problem of climate. I think most of the people already know about climate problem. Destroying painting will not make people go out from their homes and protest.
