Once I heard some gossip about the Triple Nine Society (99.9th IQ percentile). Apparently the members are mostly doomsday preppers and conspiracy believers. Obviously selection bias applies but I found that somewhat thought-provoking.

I joined Mensa for a while and found it to be full of right-wing weirdos who are absolutely the audience for this stuff. The boardgaming was good, though.

Interesting. Both the people I know who are a part of Mensa seemed very middle-of-the-road. One seemed to lean more left even. Perhaps it's influenced by location?
