mockeries
Scornful, derisive parodies
Mockeries is the plural of mockery—acts of ridicule or derision, or things that fail so completely they seem to insult their intended purpose.
Someone might endure the mockeries of classmates, or a corrupt trial might be called one of many mockeries of justice.
Their mockeries stung more than any direct criticism.
