    To drop my reply from a similar post:

    To be fair: "A magnet works because negatively charged electrons repel each other. "

    "Why do negatively charged electrons repel each other? "

    “… Well … Ok, so hear me out. You’re going to need to understand quantum mechanics and then the fermion principal. Then you’ll know that the electrons aren’t allowed to occupy the same space, and the easiest way to avoid being in the same space is to not touch each other. The electrons know they aren’t allowed to touch because they’ve studied fermions.”
