I think it's intuitively obvious that some (I would say many) so-called liberals are authoritarians

There is no doubt overlap.

There is no doubt there are some that identify themselves as one way, but are really the way they are only because of pressure from spouses or the community they live in.

The big difference is that true liberals are against the death penalty and do not believe in the use of force to solve problems.

If that is your weltanschauung, your views on life takes on a different perspective and you necessarily have to see things differently.

If agree means totally agree I might have to disagree with some of those points.

For example -
1) Business owners should be let alone to run their own businesses as they see fit

Usually/mostly/generally be let alone - agree
Always totally be left alone - disagree

Interpreting the questions in a very un-absolute way my score would probably be zero.
