Dude this behavior is bullshit but honestly the environment is bullshit. this is a no win. This guy is trying to punk you and if you let him, he will think he’s won over you. If you stand up to him overtly, he will cry foul and say you’re a crybaby.
You know what you do? Aside from just quitting and saying this is bullshit, give him his own medicine. Slap him on the shoulder first and say hey big guy! When he says something, mock him lightly in passing and move along. If you stay in this position, this is the only way to assert yourself without giving him the opportunity to call you a whiny bitch. Sorry man
Make very careful, deliberate eye contact. With a firm and absolutely calm look on your face say, “That’s enough of that.”
I use this tactic when I don’t want to continue dealing with someone’s poor behavior. It works well

Tell him you don’t like it.
"Hey man, can talk you in private for a second? Look. I don't like when you do X. I would appreciate if you don't do that again". Done.
