Something like that.
That phrase actually means that humanity is not so innocent and pure and everyone who experienced life learns the hard way that people are not so good

The problem I think is that I don't understand the role of "тот" in this sentence and also because my dictionary says: презирать = despise (= underestimates).

As for the word тот, it's just a determiner there, in other words it's a demonstrative pronoun.
despise doesn't mean to underestimate, so doesn't the Russian word презирать.
презирать (despise) - to have strong hatred to someone or something or to dislike something very much
