You should try to change her mind first and show her evidence of how much the CPC has improved the country compared to what they had before 1949 or contemporary countries like India.
That's an approach for foreign-born Chinese.
For students born and raised in China and studying abroad, it's a different matter. They have a very clear, first-hand experience of conditions in the West, conditions in China, and how the Western media portrays China. Unless OP has spent as much time in China as they have in the US, telling them about the reality of the difference isn't going to wash well with them. Yet another case of Westerners telling Chinese how to act, even if the politics are reversed.

There are countless things you could be doing to combat liberalism. Snitching on international students isn't one that you should be doing. Think positively rather than negatively. As in, what can you do to build communism wherever you are? Not, how do I tear down what others are building?
By this I mean, I'm not sure that you should even think of targeting the political organisations that she's involved in; it won't address the elephant in the room – the fact that the main political parties in your country are likely to be bourgeois, not to mention the fact of the actual bourgeois. It's like swatting flies instead of sweeping away the massive turd.
Seems insane to Western-splain China to a Chinese citizen you don't like the politics of
