Yeah, that's my stance too, even though it can come off as arrogant. The way I'd put it is "don't finance an education that won't get you a good paying job". I know some of these degrees can get you a foot in to a job that doesn't pay crazy well, but is fulfilling... That's okay too. It's also okay if that's your passion and you get someone else to pay for it.
Regardless of any impact on employability, it's pretty clear how society as a whole suffers when large sections of the public are so ill-versed in the general state of human knowledge that conspiracy theories flourish among them.
