Jim Jefferies vs Jordan Peterson

Comic challenges the controversial lecturer

Jim Jefferies challenged controversial lecturer Jordan Peterson on his Comedy Central show in the States this week.

The comment discusses the Canadian academic's resistance to a law making it illegal to refer to a transgender person using their incorrect pronoun, which he resisted on free speech grounds. The stance made him a darling of the far-right, with critics likening him to a Nazi.

Jefferies appears to win a concession from Peterson about his stance on whether bakeries should be forced to make cakes for gay weddings.
