It just doesn't seem remotely comparable to me though. What is so "toxic", so offensive, about the idea that our kids, grandkids, great grandkids, deserve good living conditions?

Some people wonder the same about what is so 'wrong' in promoting Christianity but I still see that you're trying to avoid my question but whatever man if you don't want to answer it then I won't press you any farther ... 

Just because 'you' who personally don't see it as being political doesn't that others don't ... 

Seeing as how the green movement is rooted in one of the more extremist groups such as anti-industrialists, anti-advanced technology AKA guys who usually hate factories which have been the lifeblood of human civilization and prosperity for over hundreds of years why on earth do you believe that people should subscribe against their own obvious self-interests like this ? 

There's a very good reason why 'green' parties are not of the mainstream governing view since promoting needless austerity isn't exactly a very popular idea among people around the world. The Greens are what anyone would practically deem as the 'fringe' groups ... 

It is for politically symbolic reasons why many people don't want to subscribe to the ideology of such fringe groups because most people don't see them as being in the right thus don't want to acknowledge that if they're ever right ... 

Nazi's are dangerous since their imperialistic view of the world will cause wars. Green's are dangerous since their known for promoting deindustrialization which will lead to massive austerity ... 

Imagine this, being 'green' is like being progressive except instead you'll take a pro-austerity stance by limiting or outright banning most means of production which is going to make EVERYONE poor in the end! (not every liberal is on board with the idea of killing factories) 

Even after explaining everything, if you can't understand the dangers of tying oneself to an ideology like this then I can't help you at all ... 

Most people just don't see being 'green' as something to be 'normal' and I'm trying to get this to figure into your thought process because being green is definitely one of the more political things out there since some audiences may just not realize it especially in very progressive bubbles like video game related forums where groupthink runs very rampant ... 

But Sony used the word "greener" without referring to the green movements,it is just you that fantasized a link between them.

Bolded: You are the one that should figure out that most people can differentiate different meanings from "greener"in how it is used in context and in this case it does not have to be political and connecting it to progressive extremists is a tiny bit ridiculous.

Also this forum is not a very progressive bubble,this particular one is very mixed on the political scale.
