POLL: Would you be willing to chip in for CloudFlare's $20/month Pro Plan if doing so would allow Admin the means to end CF's Error 403 -'click to verify you are human' every 60 seconds?

Through the combination of:
1) The 'Messiah' (Pedestalization)
2) 'The End is Coming' (Just wait for it / Deferral)
3) 'Judgment in the After Life (Justice is in the hereafter, not in the here & now i.e. Look Over There!)
Christians have been persuaded to allow themselves to be tied up (mentally) in so doing, neglect their own agency for change, and thus be a party to their own usurpation.

Thus: Self De-Agency-fied -> Usurped - > Plundered (Note: The meaning of the linked text is changed by the context it was given in Mark. The correct understanding is through Thomas verses 35, 21:5-8, 103 i.e. re-assembled)

As we all know: Justice delayed is justice denied
Well then, this is more true: Justice delayed indefinitely is justice perverted
Thus shall all faith, tradition and creed be measured

You need to realize this though:
it's not just the Christians who have relinquished their Agency for change
- it is everyone still under the influence of:

the hierarchical (top-down) Paradigm,
hierarchical Systems - everything from fiat money to social media, and
hierarchically controlled Narratives

Christianity & these share the same function:
to mentally tie people up & make each one of us to be a party to humanity's usurpation.

Is upgrading to the $20/month Pro Plan an option that would solve the problem?

Alternatively, would you be open to discuss managing the problem ourselves - this is just one example

IMO people are being traumatized / hypnotized by the constant & endless "verifying you are human" process
Or, possibly inducing people into subconsciously thinking: "I hate to verify as a human"

Can we have a post discussing this problem pinned somewhere so that we can have accretive dialogue for iterative plan-do-check-act (PDCA) cycles to solve this, rather than endless ephemeral chatter but no resolution?

Edit - May 2, 2024:
My SaidIt account has been locked.
Please note that I am not associated with 'Edward' nor the spammers trying to destroy SaidIt.
I am here purely to discuss solutions - that's it, that's all I am for.
My proposals to date for SaidIt re: the spam bots do not involve web development, but to quarantine them, to free up and more efficiently use limited Mod resources, including both your time.
Having said that, I am fine if SaidIt continues as is without any changes on the spam bot issue - it is your call to make.
I just want a place to say my truth. Afterall, SaidIt, is a place to 'say your truth', is it not?

Here's a proposal that would effectively quarantine and harness bot traffic for the benefit of the site.
A win-win solution for all.

Here's a proposal for a trial to address the issue and minimize user frustration.
Feel free to make constructive suggestions to address the problem.

Let's do something about it?

EddieC

Collabocracy is an envisioned alternative to Corporatocracy

The Community Reckoning Wall is where people would gather to interact directly with public servants & one another, for accretive dialogue: to discuss concerns, ideas for remediation, determine and monitor improvements on an ongoing basis based on TQM [total Quality Management] principles and PDCA [Plan-Do-Check-Act/Adjust] methodology, for virtuous cycles of improvement

For more, here's the wiki page.

This reply in the Q&A section links to a rough outline on how to transition from Corporatocracy to Collabocracy

Here's a mini example of how it could work in real life - starting with SaidItors

to reset the internal clutter from too much information.

Consider the following:
Everyone has Agency for co-creating reality
But our World AS IS, the Few rule the Many
The Many engage with Narratives(stories), Paradigm & Systems of de-Agency-fication (NPSDs)
that the Few control - that is how the Few get to rule the Many

Nonetheless, every person still has Agency - to decide daily, at every moment:
Whether or not to engage with the hierarchically-controlled NPSDs

When someone is intoxicated, s /he is self de-Agency-fied.
When someone chooses not to be intoxicated, s /he is no longer de-Agency-fied by intoxication

Another example: X/Twitter censors through shadowbans and is rife with chatter bots
Those who choose X/Twitter subject themselves to shadowban censorship & bot traps
Those who do not choose X/Twitter save themselves from such usurpation of their time & energy

Thus:
When people engage with the NPSDs, they are self-de-agency-fied
When people do not engage with the NPSDs, they are not self de-agency-fied

Everyone has Agency for co-creating reality
Everyone has Agency to decide: whether or not to remain de-Agency-fied
Everyone has Agency to decide: whether or not to be Re-Agency-fied

When the Re-Agency-fied > the de-Agency-fied, the Few cannot rule the Many

in any case, discarding NPSDs, clears the internal clutter and prevents re-cluttering.

Peace be with you.

Jesus said - then (and probably even now) (Thomas #28):

‘I stood in the midst of the world and I appeared to them in flesh.
I found them all drunk; I found none among them thirsting.
And my soul is distressed over the sons of men,
because they are blind in their hearts and do not see,
for they came into the world empty, and they seek still to come out of the world empty.
However, now they are drunk, but when they cast off their wine, then they will repent.'

Mankind has been self incapacitated and thus set himself up for plunder
using variations of the monkey trap
all of which require mankind’s willing, and often not unwitting, participation
all of which mankind has the ability to escape from - if only we choose to.

We are co-creators - we are to co-create Paradise on Earth.

Please check out The (Re)Assembled Gospel of Thomas which sets all this out - this is a gospel about who we are

This place is still overrun by bot spam even with Cloudflare.
The solution to bot spam is to keep only a handful of subs that are actively moderated.

"Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again, and expecting different results."

Edit:
e.g. This bot managed to post spam to comment/replies - even with Cloudflare on.
