Immortalism is losing popularity within H+ due to its popular interpretation as 'forced immortality', a trope well explored in fiction. :/

Asking me to sum up the current state of the H+ movement is tricky because I track the entire thing on H+Pedia.

Atheism is growing very strong, due to the influence of Zoltan Istvan, where as I believe Aubrey de Grey is toning down some of his immortalist rhetoric in favour of alternative terms like "Regenerative Medicine" and the like.

There are all kinds of trends I could comment on.
