What, like US courts have no jurisdiction in the EU? I can pirate US movies, and as a EU bank, not report on US citizens in the EU to the US? Those weird thing

Those weird things aside, this isn't about collecting VAT. It's about remaining within the confines of the law of the country you're conducting your affairs in.
It's like if I, as a Russian, wanted to sell a car to someone in the US, I'd have to ensure that my car meets whatever requirements/standards the US sets out for vehicles. If my vehicle doesn't meet those standards, which court do you think I'd have to appeal in, as a Russian selling a car to an American?

The GDPR has no mandate under existing international law. The level of strawmaning is getting ridiculous when 2 countries sign a trade agreement you have 2 electorates which have a say in what is going to happen. The GDPR extra-territorial application isn't just extra-territorial it's extra-judicial in which you have a law forced on you that you have had no saying in how it was passed and you have no saying it how it would be interpreted and or enforced. This is tyrannical and I'm an EU citizen.
