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.

I've read a fair bit about the Evergreen thing, watched video footage etc, it's not just his words that I'm believing. He was seriously harassed there and the College really let him down imo. I disagree with you that making someones life so uncomfortable that they resign isn't a form of cancellation
Being able to bounce back or get some form of life back afterwards doesn't mean that cancel culture isn't a thing. I've personally never stated that it's all consuming or can never be rectified
