Abstraction explains nothing, they themselves have to be explained

Hackers are not joiners,we're not often willing to submerge our singularity. What the times call for is a collective hack that realizes a class interest based on an alignment of differences rather than coercive unity. Hackers are a class but an abstract classs, that makes abstractions and a classs made abstract.The slogan of the hacker class is not the workers of the world united, but rather the workings of the world untied.
Everywhere abstraction reigns,abstractions made concrete. everywhere abstractions straight lines and pure curves order matters along complex but efficient vectors. But where education teaches what one may produce with an abstraction, hacker classs is of how abstractions themselves are produced.
