Anybody what?

Is anyone autistic AND liberal?

Yes.

Although, I consider myself a social liberal/fiscally conservative.

Small "l" libertarian is the word.

I consider myself a socially progressive Fenno-Scandinavian style social democrat with internationalist and some left libertarian sympathies. I guess that makes me liberal.

I'm very liberal in the American sense and not at all in the "economic liberal" sense.

Not clear on what my views on that may be yet.

If liberal infers an aversion towards totalitarian brutality, rigid hierarchical structures such as in most corporate organizations, formal religions, and a good deal of legal situations, and a general desire that people treat each other with civility and kindness and consideration for the ecology I wouldn't mind that label.

I'm a Libertarian if that's what you mean.

I'm very liberal socially, but I'm not sure how I stand economically. I'm liberal in the sense that I believe people should be able to do whatever they want as long as they're not hurting or infringing on the rights of anyone else without any government intervention.
