Want to either have it out or tattle to their mom

Someone close to me is saying bizarre, inaccurate, hypocritical and frankly hateful things on social media attached to their real name and it's really distracting me and I find I can't stop thinking about it. I don't want to "start drama" but I also can't seem to let it go, I am a talker and that's the only way I can seem to get around things is getting them off my chest. But just talking to someone who doesn't care either way isn't helping. How are you all dealing with similar issues?

I have already unfollowed and blocked them on social media but I caved just now and took another peek. I know it's on me to not do that, but having them blocked just made me obsessed with wondering what they were up to today.

This was a pretty close family member & we used to text every day about all kinds of things; now I don't really want to talk to them about anything, knowing how they "really feel" about non-negotiable items. But at the same time this was the only person I had to text about stuff like that.

I know that this phase has hit a lot of families earlier than it's hit me so I was wondering if you have any tips. I keep getting the urge to tell our other family members as if that will somehow make it stop but I also don't want to make them upset or make them feel caught up in anything.
