What is "derision"?
Derision is the use of ridicule or mockery to express contempt or scorn towards someone or something. It involves making fun of or belittling a person, idea, or situation in a way that shows strong disapproval or disrespect. For example, if someone were to laugh at a person's serious attempt to share a new idea by making sarcastic remarks, that would be an act of derision. Derision often aims to undermine or diminish the target by highlighting perceived flaws or absurdities.
