There's a difference between speaking publicly about workplace conditions and livetweeting the details of an individual conversation in a (likely) mocking tone. At that point, the only thing standing between you and being fired is whatever legal defense you can muster, because no reasonable person is going to want to work with you after that.

What's your source for the mocking tone? Is lizthegrey known for tweeting about hr proceedings in a moving tone?
Also, what is tweeting if not "speaking publicly"?
And what are workplace conditions if not "how I am disciplined at work"?

In short, yes. If you're unfortunate enough to be involved in a conversation with that individual, prepare to be insulted
I'm in slightly overlapping social circles with Liz and have never felt remotely insulted the times we've chatted. I don't follow her on Twitter anymore and haven't been around her since the pandemic started, but I'd be shocked if she insulted people indiscriminately.
For all I know she might insult people when she sees them say things she thinks are shitty, but I haven't personally experienced that and I think we've disagreed on things in the past.
