Yes, it just worked to stop me, an actual human, from seeing what you wanted to say... and I'm not interested enough to find a way around it that doesn't involve cozying up to Big Browser. At least CloudFlare's discrimination can be gotten around without JS.
Wouldn't it be ironic if the amount of JS served to a "bot" costs even more bandwidth than the content itself? I've seen that happen with CF before. Also keep in mind that if you anger the wrong people, you might find yourself receiving a real DDoS.
If you want to stop blind bots, perhaps consider asking questions that would easily trip LLMs but not humans. I've seen and used such systems for forum registrations to prevent generic spammers, and they are quite effective.
