I kind of like the comparison actually. It can be interpreted in a lot of ways such as intertwining pop culture with remembering history and recognizing that any one of us or faces you know could be the persecuted.

Personally it’s evocative to me because it speaks a lot to how people see/treat Jews. When goys want something from us or see us having a specific value (I.e. entertainment) we’re held on pedestals and “defended” under this guise of modern diversity/acceptance. But when we’re facing oppression or persecution, the world becomes silent. It’s asking viewers “Yes the Simpsons make you laugh but would you save them?” With this action the answer to the question has become clear
