ACK = acknowledge.
As for liberalism, here in Denmark "liberal" is mainly used to mean
"economically liberal", i.e. unbridled laissez-faire capitalism with no
or little tax and the state limited to protecting rich people's
property.
I'd personally favour what I'd call left-libertarianism, with an
anarchist streak - i.e. as much self-organisation as possible in a
society where everybody agree to secure each other's freedom by insuring
nobody will go without food, shelter or clothing.
