Zuko might have been looking for acceptance, but he had a definite moral center that was at odds with it, to the extent that he eventually forewent his father's acceptance at his own will. He realized his father's acceptance wasn't worth fighting for. It's been a while since I've watched ATLA but that's how I remember it going down.

I don't think Adam was ever looking for acceptance for himself or even for Faunus, and I definitely don't think his current goal is mere survival. Leading the White Fang into such a violent place has honestly decreased his chances of survival; waging a war against the rest of civilization is not a sustainable state to be in.

Honestly, I don't think he really has a clear goal, he's more like an angry child throwing a temper tantrum, directing his rage everywhere, even if it's harmful to himself and other Faunus. He says a lot of things about bringing about a new world, but honestly he has zero clear way of achieving that, the only thing he can do is kill people, so that's what he does.
