Snowflake comes from Special Snowflake. If you think you are special then you are about individualism by default.

Uh, no. Snowflake means, and has always meant, a special, unique someone who melts easily when exposed to even a tiny bit of heat (criticism). It has zero to do with individualism, in fact it mostly applies to people who identify as collectivists.
