Bashir is #FFFFFF compared to O’Brien. The Irish working class guy is whiter than the genetically engineered Oxbridge English guy? I don’t think this has been thought through.
I know we’re talking about characters, but Bashir’s actor was born in Sudan, is half Sudanese, and his birth name is “Siddig El Tahir El Fadil El Siddig Abdurrahman Mohammed Ahmed Abdel Karim El Mahdi” as an FYI.
He was genetically engineered because his parents were working class and were worried that their kid would be too dumb for even that. He’s not exactly high society.
O’Brien is what I thought of.

Yes but there’s skin white and then there’s state of mind white. Irish and Italians for example weren’t in the “white” club until relatively recently.
Haha. You aren’t wrong.
