The whole 'huh both sides are as bad as each other caring about things is lame!' libertarian stuff kinda has an appeal when you're 16, weird to still be so into it

First off, Libertarianism is a side and it's not a synonym for centrism. Also centrism is a side.

Second, when people mock both liberals and conservatives they're typically mocking those who have extreme convictions, which is a sign of ignorance. Those with a better understanding of the big picture see that a fully conservative or fully liberal outlook is ineffective. Saying "both sides are just as bad" is simply a more acceptable way of saying "both sides have some good points but you ignorant fucks are presenting none of them".
