Fair enough. There is no short answer for your question though, so buckled up. The thing about the riddles, is they don't just lead running off into random direction. They actually lead to things. Such as strong suggestions and implications of some very serious wrong doing and often downright evils people have done. Those who have done digging and worked to solve these have seen some shit. Horrible things; and by people you'd never guess. It's exactly because these "breadcrumbs" actually do lead to places that people look into them. If they did not, people wouldn't waste their time with them and would've walked away a long time ago. As far as thinking things are going to happen? Many things have happened that Q has hinted at. You just have to be paying attention and following closely.  Such as it being far from any reasonable doubt that Q has proven they've been on Air Force One with the president. They knew the exact day, the exact hour, and exact minute that Senator John McCain would die, exactly 1 month prior. A bit before that actually, however he left a "1 month marker." Then there is Q knowing that Bruce Orh was already cooperating witnesses way back in early May. And most recently, Q actually told us exactly when the FISA Declas would be back in April as well... we just didn't know it at the time. Because we didn't know how to read the message, until just the other day anyway. "Future proves past" and "You have more than you know" are two phrases Q often uses, and time and time again prove to be absolutely correct. A lot of what we have, we don't even know how to "read" yet. However Q gives hints how to as their relevance approaches. There is a reason for this. Which a slow and gradual waking of people up. Those who follow Q actually have an important role. We aren't just bystanders. Ultimately we are the safety net and/or damage control depending on how well things play out in the end. Because when big arrests do happen, people will be confused and distrustful of what is going on in the government. Very much so if things don't go smoothly. We, however, are real people. Friends, family, coworkers, etc. People they can turn to for an explanation, guidance, or to help deescalate. This may sound very extreme, however once you have the full scope of things, you quickly realize just how real this all really is. As far as arrests? There have been some, they just haven't been public. The cooperating witness for example. The small fry cronies who are helping bring down the big fish to be used as testimonies for the evidence already gathered against them. Also, these arrests cannot just suddenly happen all at once. (which many will have to happen at the same time so people don't try to run.) We are talking not only popular politicians, but famous celebrities, actors, and so on who are involved into some very bad things.  However people aren't exactly going to just sit quietly while their idols and heros are suddenly arrested and hauled off in cuffs. they need to be warmed up to the idea of their crimes, of what they are a part of first. This may sound unessairy, but let me ask you this:  5 months ago. If you were told that there was a Deep State criminal cabal operating as a secret sort of "5th branch" of government currently attempting to undermine the president and stage a coup... what would you think? Would you believe it, call it crazy? How about today? If you were already aware, what about someone who you knew wasn't aware then vs what they are seeing now on the news, etc? Big, complex and "unlikely" things are often dismissed as "impossible" without much thought when presented to a person who knows absolutely nothing about it. However, as that person becomes more and more aware of this thing, the more consideration they'll give it when it is next brought up. Eventually, the person will be forced to given in and accept the truth due to the evidence around them, or at the very least, not be very surprised if whatever it is does indeed turn out to eventually be proven true. This "warming up" to the idea of a deep state is where we are, and just now crossing over into the next step, which is exposing their crimes. It's start with small fish before larger crimes and bigger fish are indicted, rinse repeat until you reach the top of the corruption. As for why it has taken so long for anything to happen? That's an easy awnser, actually. Almost our entire government, as well as many working within all three branches, are corrupt. Notice how a ton of people were getting fired left and right over the first year? Trump and the gang needed to make room for their guys. Year 1 was more or less gaining a firm foothold in the swamp. Year two has been setting up the stage, ensuring everything is in place for the take downs. (Will be finally getting to this fall.) Year three will be the big fish cookout. Year four? unobstructed MAGA. ...as you can see, there is no "short answer" to what Q is. It's very complicated, however it's actually designed to be this way. Why you ask? You actually have that answer right now. You're skeptical to believe this is true, that or simply do not believe it. Which is the whole point. It's a movement disguised as a "Conspiracy theory" so the vast majority of your enemies simply don't take it seriously; and those who do, look crazy and paranoid trying to convince the others this "load of crap" is really a threat. It's actually fucking genius, honestly. It's the ultimate camouflage; or as Q put it, "Military planning at it's finest." We only know it's legit because we pay close attention and watch for the clues it leaves behind that simply cannot be explained or be done by some random LARP on the internet. (Like knowing McCains time of death I mentioned above, among many other things.) It has taken many of us hundreds of hours of research to be truly convinced of Q's legitimacy. However even now, we could still be wrong. But again, that is the whole point. its camouflage. And if we are all wrong and have been duped? Well... shit... aren't we all just a bunch of fools? lol. All I know is that it is not a PsyOp, because it has identified, warned against, and even exposed actual enemy PsyOps with very clear goals to divide and mislead. Q is way too "Pro trump with no strings attached" to be actually against Trump. Plus with it revealing it knew the FISA and texts were to be declassified today? Yeah. Q is legit, and it's one of the good guys. This I am 99.99999% sure of. ( ^^^^ Weaponized Autism ^^^^)
