"Exactly how much horizontal movement can there be in the free electrons
when the electric wave is moving at 300000 km/h?
Already answered earlier in this thread. For HF frequencies, the

horizontal movement of the electrons is minuscule and they can be
considered to be oscillating in place.

Waves are described in the two method: " More generally, the Stokes drift
velocity is the difference between the
*average Lagrangian flow velocity of a fluid parcel, and the average
Eulerian *flow velocity of the fluid at a fixed position. This nonlinear
phenomenon *is *named after George Gabriel Stokes, who derived expressions
for this drift *in *his 1847 study of water waves."

It is the photons that move at the speed of light.

Photons are the math joke.
Electric waves in a medium made of electrons move at the speed of light.
S*

the waves are photons, or the photons are waves, either way they move
at the speed of light, the electrons do not move at the speed of light.
