You miss the point. He’s saying that GDPR is worse than Chinese GFW.

They're not arguing about the laws themselves, but rather the implementation.

He's saying that it's safer for him for China just to block him out of their territory than for the EU to allow him and open him up to GDPR-related lawsuits. Even if the lawsuit is scurrilous or the fines a misunderstanding and can be reversed, that can be tremendous effort and anguish for a person. Often requiring years in court.
