If that is the worse accusation we’re hearing from an entirely 1 sided story - that’s pretty mellow. I’ve seen people accuse some of ‘screaming at them’, when they literally never raised their voice and just disagreed with them firmly in a meeting

Absolutely. It's possible to be firm/assertive while being polite. Not called "screaming". Even "screaming" is very low on the scale of "abuse".
