4) Secondary Boycotts Is there an explicit or implicit threat that people who support you will also get punished? Are people putting pressure on employers and colleagues to fire you or stop associating with you? Do people who defend you have to fear adverse consequences?
5) Moral Grandstanding Are the attacks on you ad hominem, repetitive, ritualistic, posturing, accusatory, outraged? Are people flattening distinctions, demonizing you, slinging inflammatory labels and engaging in moral one-upmanship? Are people ignoring what you actually say?
6) Truthiness Are the things being said about you inaccurate? Do the people saying them not even seem to care about their veracity? Do they feel at liberty to distort your words, ignore corrections and make false accusations?
Some items on this checklist might prove besides the point. Others could merit addition. But this is a serious definition of cancel culture. Anyone who still claims that its critics just "don't like to be criticized on the internet" is not engaging the actual argument.

How can a self interested, defensive individual reliably tell if others are engaging in "moral grandstanding" vs hurt and upset bc they've engaged in racism, sexism, sexual harassment, or transphobia?
Generally, the difference is they can and will answer questions with specific answers instead of chanting tautologies at you.
(1of2) I don't know if they ignore what you say(=mean),but people tend to have a couple of biases, & many mistake info for understanding,on platforms(twitter)it can turn to something
(2of2) very affective fast (it almost becomes personal), all people are not able to really acknowledge that there many ways of looking at a political problem & that we often differ in knowledge & expertise depending on what we debate?
I see this a lot in the form of people talking _about_ people instead of debating _with_ them.
"This ad hominem, repetitive, ritualistic, posturing, accusatory, outraged moral grandstanding I am being subject to is a Soviet Gulag-esque threat to free speech I tell you!"
