Disdain
Hi, everyone
Should I use “of” or “by” here?
“That video shows A COMPLETE disdain BY some of his ministers TOWARDS/FOR other institutions.” ........or ......”That video shows A COMPLETE disdain OF some of his ministers TOWARDS/FOR other institutions.”? Which of these two is better? Of or by?
Thank you

"That video shows some of his ministers' complete disdain for other institutions."
This wording is more natural sounding to native speaker ears.
(There are now comment corrections on your original post for this, too.) :-)
