Let us look at the definition you put forth for individualism. Individualism is the moral stance, political philosophy, ideology, or social outlook that stresses "the moral worth of the individual". Individualists promote the exercise of one's goals and desires and so value independence and self-reliance while opposing external interference upon one's own interests by society or institutions such as the government. If a group of individuals gets together, they do so of their own free will and because it is in their own self-interest to do so. These groups then are often used to oppose external interference upon their own interests by the government....I see no contradiction at all to an individualist theory when these individuals form groups to promote their own self-interests.
