How do I try to stress to my mother that what she does really isn't right? I don't want her to get offended and defensive, I really just want her to stop. But clearly just asking her to stop won't do. I will make it a lot more convenient to do the less shitty alternative. I don't want to say what it is, since usually people just start talking shit when they learn. I want something more productive.

You're being too vague. If it's too incendiary to discuss then fine, but you should really know that saying "How do I get a person to stop doing a thing?" is useless.

I'm wondering if I should do it in pay their through text. I wonder if it's face to face and I'm trying to tell her why what she does is fucked up, she would get more defensive and less likely to listen.

I realize I'm being vague. But I hope someone has more experience with talking to people in such a way to make them want to change, rather than get defensive and offended.

More in the ballpark of hurting animals.
