We have 1 founder and 4 team members including myself. If it matters, I was the last to join by a few weeks. Just something we all thought we'd work on during lockdown.

Yesterday the founder tells me we have a video conference and fair warning it might be brutal.

Video conference starts and two team members start going off and talking down to me about something rather subjective and how they think I should've handled it.

One in particular flies off the handle and says don't tell me how to do my job and references something days ago where I offered a suggestion.

The founder was present the entire time and barely spoke up to say we all need to get along. She later DM's me to say she wishes they could have communicated in a better way.

Now I'm completely demotivated and not sure how to move forward with this team. Do I pretend to respect these team members when they don't respect me?

This entire thing feels like everyone wanting to feel important and our founder trying not to make waves.
