The first comes from classical electrodynamics. "Moving charges produce magnetic fields!" The second comes from relativity. "Moving charges see length contraction, which changes the density of electric charges relative to other electric charges, changing the balance of forces between them". And then there is the quantum answers. "Magnetic forces are caused by electron’s spin, and give rise to a magnetic dipole moments" and "magnetic forces are a manifestation from the exchange of virtual photons when particles are in motion relative to each other."
The problem is that this gets into bigger questions. What is spin? What are magnetic dipole moments? What is length contraction. What are virtual photons?
I think what he was upset by is that people who answer these questions tend to make analogies to give the feeling that you understand it, but really don't. Basically, I think he was mad because I think he thought they were wanting him to give some "pop science" answer like "magnetic forces are like rubber bands".

By Allah, he feels it.
