Hello There!

Is there a difference in meeting between "to make fun of someone" and "to laugh at someone"?

Thanks a lot

He's always making fun of me/my mistakes
He's always laughing at me/my mistakes

In many cases, they're almost the same but you can make fun of someone without laughing at them.
