I don't feel supporting a party based on fairytales is any better of an option than voting for Trump or Hillary.
Also on most issues current libertarians vote along side Republicans so they are far from a "3rd party" hence the reason they almost always run on a Republican ticket..

Like you I don't agree with some of that they want, but I think they appeal to some liberals as well because they are very liberal socially. I don't know that Libertarians as a whole could be a real 3rd party, but if they made a showing it could encourage other and independents to start running and challenging the two big parties.
A revolution doesn't start with cannon fire or fanfare, it starts with a whisper.
