Atheist activist Seth Andrews keeps seeing reports on social media and the media that the atheist movement is dying

The atheist activist Seth Andrews indicated that when looks around on social media and the media he is seeing reports that the atheist movement is dying. 

In his video entitled Is the atheist movement dying? Andrews declared:

You know lately when I look around on social media and in the media in general really. I see these proclamations. Proclamations that the atheist movement is on life support. It's dying. It's probably beyond saving. 

Now I know some people out there are very weary of all the public infighting and the squabbling and the division and just the general nastiness out there between various camps. And I totally get that. I totally get it. 

Some people draw a big circle around New Atheism... And they declare New Atheism is dead or it's dying or irrelevant or whatever... 

As an atheist activist myself, I can understand myself why some activists have just left the party... 

They just got tired of it. All the politics and the posturing and the trolls and the bad faith operators out there. They have seen first hand that atheists are not immune to scandal, to ugliness to irrationality. To this unhealthy rage.

 In 2017, the atheist activist Lee Moore declared about American atheist organizations:

If you look at the major atheist groups right now, like the national groups, the ones that are doing the real activist work... They are not bringing in the kind of donations they used to. Most of them are starved for cash. They're downsizing left and right. Because people aren't just giving like they used to. And I talked to a lot of the major donors out there and they said, "Well, we're kind of tired of seeing the atheist community just fight amongst itself and not really get anything done. We'd rather not give money if we don't think it's going to go somewhere.
