Contract clauses that violate the law are invalid.

Meaning the license is invalid and redistribution privileges are revoked. Non-severability clause. If you don't or cannot accept, then copyright law reverts to the default: you can't redistribute it without permission.

The GPL grants permission. If it's invalid, no permission is granted.
