While Kuze is kind of a launching point, Trump is more like one of the other members of the Individual Eleven. He's a byproduct of a collective group that is already spawning copycats. He's had lateral movement from social power to personal power, and harnesses both, which other copycats simply have failed to do so far. He's a sort of evolved organism. I heard an example of it today in a program by the Guardian, covering the special election in Montana. The reporter interviewed an old (80? 90?) lady, who said this one candidate was clearly ridiculous because he had a TV ad where he shot a television. The reporter then mentioned how the opposing candidate - her candidate - ran an identical ad. She said they were completely different examples. He then said she probably only thought they were different because one of them was for the candidate she wanted, and she agreed. Another example was when the reporter asked her why she supported Trump regardless of his failures or scandals, and she said because he is a real, normal person. The reporter offered that many people find him the opposite of a normal person, and she replied that they don't know what they're talking about. "Gouda notes that there is a tendency within a Stand Alone Complex for the masses to unconsciously project their inadequacies and common desires onto a leader." I think this kind of self-manipulation in order to achieve a specific goal is essentially a form of Stand Alone Complex, in the form of thought patterns being duplicated among a group, with no explicit intention to do so. In order to achieve an unspoken specific social change the people follow an icon, and do anything they need to do to continue following that icon and eventually achieve the goal.
