It’s like they got to the bottom of the rabbit hole, and decided “Eh, fuck it, I’m cool with it. Carry on.”
Oh you’re right, it was never about protecting children, it was about feeling special for figuring out a secret “they” don’t want you to know. When “They” come out in the open and just admit to it and show exactly who is doing it and how far it goes without secrecy, it loses interest for the obsessives and people missing things from their lives.
It was about the hunt, not the outcome. And this is an attitude that a LOT of people have about far more things than just Q-anon conspiracy, most liberals and leftists also have their own cars they chase without a plan for what to do when they catch it. Everyone has some storyline they’re engaged with and feel connected to.
And these storylines are deliberately being both seeded and capitalized on to keep a leash around the population and to keep people from unifying.
