It sounds like all of this aggression (on all sides) is attributed to poor or conflicting signage.
Whenever I am walking or biking and face a situation like this, where I know it is faster for all parties involved to just let the car go through and then me next, I just kind of move away from the intersection, slow down so I'm not getting there at the same time as them, or make it look like I have no intention of crossing. They go through in 0.1 second without slowing down, and I am delayed 0.1 second, and I have avoided all possible confrontation with no anxiety and all is good.
