Why can't I download High Sierra from the App Store anymore? I can't do a fresh install on an old iMac that I have that had the hdd die on it. And since I can't download HS from the App Store, I can't create a usb installer to boot from. Why Apple??

Try installing this in Safe Mode, but not using Firefox as it’ll mess things up…

Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at startup).
Install command doesn't work for High Sierra, the App Store will not download the installer.
