Toxic people at work always exist as part of the overall environment. The environment tolerates them. Judge the environment. I'd be asking myself why I'm in that environment and what I hope to achieve. If you're feeling this way now, how will you feel in six months time? Will you still feel like tolerating rush hour traffic to get to that workplace? For how long?
Not all jobs can be swapped out easily. Your situation matters. You may have to stay in that environment for whatever reason. Know your reason and the boundaries thereof. Be clear to yourself. Decide on what would cause you to exit and when. Be explicit in your reasons and why. You might have to remind yourself every day.
Maybe this environment isn't toxic or the situation isn't so bad. Get legal counsel anyway in terms of a bullying case. You may not have an actual bully in play right now but preparation for such might help. Even if you don't go the legal route, keep a journal, notes etc. If the manager is turning a blind eye to the situation that definitely isn’t good either.
