I’m actually a member. Its cheap and made me some money. But yes, dunning kruger is a thing, no matter the number. Being able to learn systmically relevant tasks in a short time is far from being a good person or even a logical thinker. Its another fascist control instance.
Even if Mensa/IQ were a reliable measure of intelligence, it ignores that people can be incredibly intelligent and foward-thinking in one or many areas while also being not-that-strong in others, as well as we all have biases and blind spots.
The whole concept is bullshit. It is a nice thing to understand why certain tasks are easier to manage. As an autistic person, it was very interesting to get a detailed analysis which showed that I am in fact peaking the test in some areas while others are average.
That led me to pursue hobbies and jobs that focus on these strengths. As always, there is no ethical consumption and I am forced to live in this situation. I do however fully accept that the concept is utter crap in terms of “intelligence” and the hype.
Imagine being Mensa-pilled.

I think only the very extreme would judge you for surviving.
