<<Do you think a "story of a firehouse burning down" is in any way analogous to a story suggesting Jews joined with neo-Nazis?>>

Let's see - both ironic to the point of humor, both have a dark side, both are potentially very offensive to those who are understandably sensitive to the darker aspects.

Yes, there is a very relevant analogy there. That there is a disparity in the magnitude of the darkness doesn't change the analogy.

And a little bit more on the humor of irony - eh!
