Specifically around the Colston statue in Bristol, that couldn't be further from the truth.
The statue has been controversial for decades because of the history of the main and because of what having a statue celebrating such a man represents.
It was specifically targeted because of what protesters did know, not what they didn't.

but yes you only have to listen to them to realise that the majority are not sure what they are protesting about..
