Basically, they're telling me that waves are made of particles right?

qm is all nonsensical circular logic talmudic numerology, you're not supposed to understand it, you're supposed to pretend to understand it and spend a lot of time memorizing formulas to prove your false understanding.
once you've devoted a lot of time to memorization, you'll be subject to the sunk cost fallacy and you'll believe that the talmudic bulllshit is really true.

For light? Yeah, it has particle-like properties. What's the issue?

Both waves and particles are just an abstraction. Nobody really knows how reality looks like. It's important to understand it before going further.

is there any popsci explanation that has done as much damage as the "wave/particle" duality meme?

QM states are neither. They are vectors in a Hilbertspace (or rays, if you want to be a pedant).

QM is made up nonsense; relativity and Rutherford's atomic model are the last real physics

*observes photoelectric effect*
*observes a diffraction pattern with a single electron*
*predicts the energy levels in a hydrogen-like atom*
*predicts the energy of a photon escaping an ion*
*observes tunneling*
*conducts stern-gerlach*
woah weird how QM is right about so much despite allegedly being bullshit

I HAVE THE ANSWER FOR YOU ANON

Here's the answer:

All particles are just waves. They all form the quantum wave function.
This wave evolves according to Schrödinger's Equation.

And that's almost it.

But whenever you have an apparatus that makes some measurement you apply Born Rule.
