Psychological safety is a double edged sword. If you feel free to interrupt people, express dissent, and joke around during meetings then people might begin to resent you. It's a big risk. Despite feeling "safe", it's still a risk that could affect your job security and finances.

The article focused on people who were sensitive enough to determine when others in their group were feeling upset or left out or something. Also if everyone speaks and interrupts and jokes as much as you, they should be allowed to also express their dissent in that they don't think your jokes are appropriate or that you don't listen or whatever.
