Individualism doesn't preclude the use of statistics or generalizations; it precludes appeal to popularity as a moral justification for physical aggression and the violation of property norms. Individualism isn't isolationism; individualism is recognition of the fact that value and preference are expressed through the purposeful action of individual human beings. Individualism isn't a rejection of community; individualism is adherence to the property norms of non-aggression, first use and consensual exchange. Individualism isn't a rejection of cooperation; individualism brings about the conditions under which people can flourish through mutually beneficial, higher order cooperation and exchange.
Individualism is just another word for capitalism, libertarianism, voluntaryism, or anarchism.
All individuals are individualists when it comes to how one's own body and time are used. All collectivists are therefore hypocrites in that they prefer individualism for themselves (except when it means taking responsibility for the negative or unintended externalities of their decisions) while rejecting it when it comes to the property of others. Collectivism is a memetically-replicated tendency toward superstitious delusion left over from humanity's tribal past. It manifests whenever individuals are unified by fear, hatred and envy, the physical discomfort of which they typically seek to alleviate through violence and theft.
Collectivists literally hallucinate that other people are extensions of themselves. To the collectivist, the preferences of other people either don't exist or aren't relevant. Other people are merely means to their own preferred ends.
The individual is thus always the smallest minority.
