More or less all of them! "Despise" means strongly dislike.

I would choose this one as a synonymous expression. However, it's rather formal and rare to use disdain as a verb.

"those who despise me"~ "those who treat me with disdain"


By the way, none of the expressions is a sentence; they don't have a finite verb in the principal clause.
