Particle Spin. Electron Spin.
"If It Quacks/Acts Like A Duck, It Doesn't Mean It's A Real Duck!"
It/He Does 'Behave' Like A Duck, So We 'Model It' As A Duck.
Giving It All A Duck's Properties.
We May Not Know What It 'Is'. But We Do Know How It 'Behaves As' Like And So 'Model' It As Such With An Analogy. Going As Far As We Can With It.
There Is A Big Difference Between 'Is' and 'Behaves As' ('Model As') Such.
So Light Is Not a Wave Or Particle! But It 'Behaves As' And So We 'Model It' As a Wave Or Particle. Giving It All A Wave's Or Particle's Properties. Depending On The Applied Situation.

What Is A Force? Revisited. My Quick Take.
Traditional Fields Viewpoint. Everyday Forces.
Versus Force-Carrier Particles Viewpoint. In Subatomic Particle Interactions.
Fields Viewpoint:
(Everyday Forces)
A Force arises from the action of the field of one particle upon another particle, and vice versa. Traditional View.
Everyday Contact Forces. And, Non-Contact Forces. Action at a Distance.
A 'Force' Involves "The Transfer Of Momentum".
Force-Carrier Particles Viewpoint:
(In Subatomic Particle Interactions)
Or, A 'Force' arises from a force-carrier particle exchanging between from one matter particle to another matter particle. The force-carrier particle mediates "The Transfer of Momentum". The force-carrier exchange manifests as / gives rise to / results in the action of one matter particle upon another matter particle. Force-carrier particles may be real particles or virtual particles.
How Does It Work? A Force-Carrier Analogy. How A Repulsive Force Manifests / Arises? Two basketball players on ice-skates or each in his own row boat on water. The basketball players are the particles here. The basketball one throws to the other is the force-carrier here. For a Repulsive Force, one player throws the ball to the other. He moves back. The other player catches/accepts the ball. A transfer of momentum. The other player moves back also. Both move away from each other as if by some repulsive force (created by the force-carrier exchange).
How Does An Attractive Force Manifests / Arises Then? How does that work in this analogy? One player throws the ball with an elastic cord attached to the ball and the other cord end to him. The other player catches/accepts the ball. Both are pulled toward each other by the elastic cord. Or maybe, one player throws a bommerang in the opposite direction away from the other player. He moves toward the other player. The other player catches/accepts the returning bommerang toward them. A transfer of momentum. He moves toward the other player too. Both move toward each other as if by some attractive force (created by the force-carrier exchange).
Indeed, a force-carrier exchange between matter particles does create either a repulsive force or an attractive force between the matter particles. That's the effect of force-carrier particles on matter particles. The Force manifests / arises / results from the force-carriers. Force-Carriers ------> Forces.
Subatomic Particle Interactions involve the exchange of fundamental force-carriers between matter particles. So, we can think of each Fundamental Force-Carrier Particle giving rise to their corresponding Fundamental Force/Interaction.
Fundamental Forces Are Not Like Everyday Forces With A Direct Nature.
Instead, Fundamental Forces Results InDirectly From Their Fundamental Force-Carrier Particle Being Exchanged Between Subatomic Matter Particles.
There are Four Fundamental Forces Corresponding To The Four Fundamental Force-Carrier Particles. But at the Subatomic Level, it is best to keep in mind and think of Fundamental Interactions rather than as Fundamental Forces.
