If they repeal 230, do we have to pick our comments from a preapproved list?

Nope, there will just be this giant wall that will only let non-banned subjects through, burning the rest to a crisp.

I'm actually scared what the internet will look like less 230. I'm guessing we will see more 4chan then pre-approved comments, just because that scales easier.

What would prevent these new 4chans from being sued out of existence?

That's already the present situation on social media.
