But it’s OK to kill them in the womb? Liberals are really weird. (Austria does allow 2nd trimester abortions - WikiPedia)

I believe the way a liberal progressive/progressive libertarian looks at it is this:
An in-the-womb fetus is just a lumpy growth of cells, it's not anything that feels pain or has a heart or brain, etc so therefore it's just fine to remove said lumpy growth of cells.
However, the second that lumpy growth of cells actually does leave a womb it all of a sudden has feeling and feels pain and is a human being. At that point circumcision is a painful mutilation.

That is how a liberal progressive/progressive libertarian would justify the hypocrisy to themselves.
