Mass of photon? What it can't exist.

The mass-velocity relationship prevents photons from having any mass.
Therefore, they cannot be affected by gravity.

If we follow the idea of ​​what a photon is (I remind you that it does not exist between its source and its receiver, and that this time that we allocate to it is only an illusion due to the spatio-temporal structure of the universe) and the fact that it has NO proper time, and THEREFORE that it does not exist any more than a unicorn in my garden whose proper time of existence would be zero.
How then could something that does not exist find the time necessary to be deflected by "gravity".
This is obviously an absurd question.
The photon is a quantum of energy instantly torn from its source (which has no other function than to be ready by different means) by a receiver, IN the receiver's frame of reference.
In the source's frame of reference, the tearing is totally blind, and the source does not know where the photon is going, and where it could go.
For it, this event exists only in its own future, and therefore will exist, possibly, only in millions or billions of years.
The source that was believed to be all-powerful is nothing.
It is the receiver that is everything.
A white-hot iron placed alone in the universe could neither move (in relation to what?) nor emit (what would authoritatively tear its quanta from it?).
