History is, without a doubt, one of the most important things people can learn, this isn't women's studies or some made up bs to screw idiots out of money

History isn't important? Tf?

A general understanding of history is important. The specialized minutiae that pursuing a degree in the topic is a niche subject that has next to no practical use in the real world. A degree in art history with a specialization on early French impressionism is going to mean, in most cases, that you just wasted four years of your life studying a subject that you may have been extremely passionate and interested about, but has little relevance to preparing you for the real world outside of college.

Education is inherently valuable imo, it doesnt have to translate into monetary gain necessarily

Then it is more of pursuing a hobby than picking up applicable life skills. I don't have an issue with a degree for interpretive dance existing; I'm sure it's somebody's passion and interest, I question whether it benefits anybody for education in such a topic to be free. If it is something you're interested in then pursue it as a hobby or a side passion, find a profession that allows you to support your hobby.
