I don’t know if individualism really maps onto conventional left-right; the political compass essentially makes it a separate axis.
Examples: Nazis and Protestants are both fairly individualistic (Nazism believes in a masculine / warrior machismo, and Protestants believe in an individual relationship with god and interpretation of the Bible). Whereas Catholics are still right but less individual.
Certainly arguable that SJWs are individualists.
