trust me, bro:

here is the receipt.

the claim

Electric current is fundamentally the propagation of electromagnetic energy flux rather than the drift of electrons.

the verdict

SUPPORTED

the evidence backs this

confidence 83/100

Standard electromagnetic theory and Poynting vector formulations support the view that electric energy is transferred through electromagnetic fields in space rather than by the drift of electrons.
