I don't have a smoking gun yet, but I believe I'm close to uncovering the truth. I think to most of us, it's clear that Zeus is probably not a real person, but a constructed caricature created for entertainment. Because if he is a real person that's just sad. Why PO? Here's the evidence we've collected:

-We know PO is not above creating alter-ego identities to troll PotD (see: the famous Christine Kao incident in which he and nudojudo are the primarily suspects and accepted culprits).

-We know PO would not half-ass an attempt, so keeping an account hidden and accumulating karma for years before activating it is definitely likely.

-PO will often rush to defend Zeus despite usually staying out of "drama" (see: his post in "Zeus is warned" topic).

-Somewhat similar posting style where they seem to lack the ability to concisely summarize their points. Both seem of the mindset that longer posts gives the appearance of intelligence.

-Both claim users they disagree with are "troll alts" as if this somehow invalidates any statement or opinion shared from said "troll alt".

-Zeus began his rise shortly before Trump took off. For PO, who is known to hate politicians and political discussion, the possibility of a non-politician becoming elected could have gotten his loins moist, but he knew he'd need an alter ego to express "controversial" political opinions if he didn't want to ruin the image of himself that he's cultivated here.

I think it's likely that if PO is behind Zeus, he's working in tandem with another user, likely either a Geek, former Geek, or a seemingly inactive user who was once PO's friend. This would allow them to flesh out Zeus's character more and construct minor false differences of opinion on pop culture and media to give the illusion of Zeus being a real person.
