My rebuttal is "your mom is a b***h". Cut contact as soon as you can; you don't need someone like that in your life. She doesn't value other human beings, and she doesn't have empathy for the suffering of others. She sounds like a nasty person to be around and all she will do is bring you down - either through her constant negativity or though her hatred of others.

You don't need to rebut her words - she is an adult and has made her choices - you just need to accept she is not a good person and move on as soon as you can.
