You shouldn’t use that acronym. Many activists use that as a sort of cover for their implicit transphobia, GLB(ISGD)Q is preferable.
GLB(ISGD)Q stands for: Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, (Intersex, Sex and/or Gender Diverse), Queer. The letter ‘T’ for ‘transgender’ is often used in this acronym, but as an umbrella term it is incorrect and offensive to many people who don’t consider themselves ‘transgender’. They may be ‘trans’, or’ transsexual’, or ‘transexed’ or ‘intersex’ or ‘androgynous’ or without sex or gender, or many other terms. Intersex, Sex and Gender Diverse as an umbrella term is much more inclusive.
Thanks for bringing attention to that I didn’t at realize it was made up and not a legitimate variation since there are a whole bunch of such acronyms (FABGLITTER, QUILTBAG, LGBTQetc, LGBTQQ, SGL, GLBTA). As an outsider It can be hard to tell apart splitters from someone just feeling slightly trollific (down voted the grandfather accordingly).
Actually, as far as I can tell the person writing at the second link I gave is completely serious. But I think it almost certain that CaveJohnson is the author at the first link.
The original posting had troll written all over it, and OneSTDV talks about posting that quote as a troll. CaveJohnson’s views on other issues, as far as they are apparent from his brief presence here so far, are consonant with those of OneSTDV. That evidence is enough for me.
Another detail I didn’t notice before is that OneSTDV posted about posting it as a troll on the very same day that CaveJohnson posted it here.
Clearly OneSTDV was trying to encourage people to troll in that post. I don’t see how much this differs from the “reader of the blog” hypothesis. Unless there are stylistic similarities in the way they write. As to opinions, reading through CaveJohnsons comments I agree with about 7/8ths, but you are right that there is a marked focus on HBD related issues in his posting history. The name he picked and a few of the earlier comments indicated he may have started out as a role-playing account.
If I had to bet I would say he is a DL of a LWer used for stating politically incorrect or dangerous opinions (ala Quirrell) who reads OneSTDV.

Are you this person or this one?

Why do you think so? Perhaps he is just a reader of the blog.

Edit: Googling the blog It seems OneSTDV thinks the drug war is eugenic while CaveJohnson wishes to relax drug laws.
