The difference is the intolerance to historical criticism. The master race was effectively parodied by Mel Brooks in The Producers, with the biggest complaint that maybe it was a little crude (I laughed my derriere off). In contrast, the moment Woody Allen parodied the chosen people in his movies (Radio Days etc.), he was instantly labeled a self-hating Jew.
