As it stands this isn't at all tragic in any way.
You can say you don't feel bad for them because they had choices, and that's totally fine. I do, but that's not the point I was trying to make.
All I'm saying is "tragedy," in the literary sense, doesn't make that distinction. Romeo and Juliet is an easy example. It's one of the all-time tragedies, and yet both characters have choice after choice to avoid the "inevitable."
By definition, Randle El's story is still tragic. You just don't have to feel bad for him.
