It would be epic if Trump vetoed this. Would they have enough votes to pass it without his signature?
I hope he does as I see this as an attempt to muzzle his supporters.

As I read this I imagined AOC typing this bill with her teeth.

This bullshite started when motherfrickers started watermarking their memes and post them as videos.

This will never make it past a veto.
Even if it does, the Fair Use Act is already precedent.

The only thing they can agree on is destroying our rights.
I actually would have expected this to be a forum on which the majority would support protecting the rights of those who own property from infringement by those who seek to appropriate that private property.
I guess that concept only applies when the misappropriation is not entertaining or humorous.
The photographer who created this image spent a day of his time and hired three models to undertake this photoshoot and create images for sale in the stock image market. He has not made one red cent of all of the misappropriation of his image.

Needs to be a "Free Speech/Fair Use" exemption for non-commercial use.

Wrong!!! It will be used to shut down sites like Tigerdroppings.

Well this is not a libertarian argument at all. It is being used as a parody or joking manner by individuals who usually are not profiting on the image. While you have a point if businesses and/or individuals profit it off said image, this legislation would disproportionately affect non-income generating users of it.
I'm also willing to bet there is already legislation out there in regards to using it in a profit based manner.

There is absolutely no necessity for stealing copyrighted material when you feel like being cute.
Let’s use the well-known image of the boyfriend with the roving eye.
What are the chances that that photographer (who expended time money and effort in creating the image) can now actually sell that image on the stock image market? Zero, right? Who is going to buy an image that is already flooding the Internet?
Everyone who used (and/or altered) his image decreased the value of his property by misappropriating the image for their own use
