So, like, lisp is the best way to do hacking, right? Not necessarily security cracking, but, like, tweak stuff and get around limitations, right? Lisp is the best for that?

I am not so sure what you mean. Do you mean like system administration, or application administration like configuration files? A Lisp dialect is just create for programming and writing. You do not have to just use a Lisp dialect to configure a system.

Could you clarify what you are tying to accomplish?

Lisp is a good starting point for writing a new language. There is the idea of the domain specific language where you design a language that is perfect for solving a specific problem.

Haskell is the best because it has side effects and Lisp doesn't.
