She is an avowed Communist (and Irish) this group might just fit her world view.
I suspect the latter due to your use of communist as a pejorative, a reliable indicator someone knows nothing about it as an idea but is keen to talk about Stalin.
What’s happening in Gaza is described by the majority of Israeli Holocaust scholars as genocide. Opposing it isn’t radical. Supporting it is perverse.
Your bias is showing.
A description of her politics and environment likely explains her support for this particular organisation.
You're also very confidentally wrong about my sentiments. Israel is genocidal maniac state that should be sanctioned by the rest of the world.
That said, protest without economoc leverage is useless. State approved protests are ineffective by definition. We've had three years of them and they've done nothing.
We should be on the same side by your hysteria and lack of comprehension makes you counterproductive and useless. I suggest you be more strategic or stfu.

If they were told the truth (that the country has to do what the White House says or else the new blackshirts do to Downing Street as they've recently rehearsed in Southampton, Belfast, Rotherham and Hull, plus the UK police and troop numbers are too small to affect the outcome) they could start to think more realistically about the situation.
