What do you think about that whole Evergreen story? Also, what do you mean he's a staple on the alt right media circuit? Do you mean he is alt right or alt right people use his story to push their agenda?
Regarding Maya Forstater, yes she won her tribunal that doesn't cancel her cancellation, you asked for examples and I gave them to you

He's telling you he resigned for his own safety. Either he was cancelled or he wasn't. You can't cancel yourself then cry that you've been cancelled. He had his job until he decided he didn't - he wasn't cancelled. No I meant that he's very popular on alt-right media, making many regular appearances. He's like a Dave Rubin with brains - he calls himself progressive or liberal, but isn't. He uses the self labelling to attack the positions he says he holds. It's a great little earner for the previous members of the self titled IDW group.
I don't know whether or not he is alt-right, I know he isn't progressive but pretends he is. He was a trump supporter.
Resigning isn't being cancelled. If you worked in a shop and all of your co-workers said you should resign, but the management didn't, have you been cancelled?
If you've been fired, then won at tribunal then maybe cancel culture isn't really the all consuming power it's being made out to be. As stated previously, people in all walks of life, lose their jobs for reasons not deemed legal. This shows that the system works (to a degree), way more than it proves anything about so-called cancellation.
