    I have read the letter and context of the letter. Lassalle had suggested to Marx that he have his daughter become an escort, essentially a prostitute, to help Marx pay off his debts. I read this from the point of view of an enraged father in a private correspondence to his best friend

    Was his choice of words wrong? Yes

    Did Lassalle deserve to be cussed out over suggesting Marx pimp out his daughter? Also yes
