What about the third parties that Reddit has already sold the data to? Does GDPR require Reddit to chase them down and make them delete it as well?

yes, and if they cannot, they are violating the GDPR and have to pay fines.

This is why datasets are rarely sold as massive CSV's in the modern world - instead companies with data sell access to API's, with the expectation you'll query for what you need in real time.
