Much of Divide is Salem speaking ironically to Ozpin, telling him that his forces have no hope of stopping her and, thus, he's basically sending them to their deaths. She's mocking him, not judging him.

It's entirely likely that Salem hates Ozpin specifically either because he's been a constant thorn in her side that will not go away like all the people who work with him, or because of whatever happened in the past where the gods cursed Ozpin for not stopping her.

We've said multiple times that we go with what the show itself is outright telling us, which is why we temporarily had Vernal set as the Spring Maiden until the show stopped telling us "Vernal is the Spring Maiden" and finally came out and said "Syke, she was just pretending." So until the show outright tells us that Ozpin is the bad guy and Salem is the one trying to stop him, we'll put down what the show is telling us: that it's the reverse of that.
