Gravity is the curvature of space and time by objects with mass. Light follows a path through space and time.

Within the event horizon of a black hole, even if a photon has zero mass, the curvature of spacetime is so extreme that every path through spacetime within the event horizon can only lead inward to the singularity.

Light can be bent by gravity, or pulled in by it in the case of a black hole.
Gravity only effects things that have mass, therefore, light has mass.
Just because you can't put it on your bathroom scale, doesn't mean it doesn't have mass.
Can you weigh air on your scale?  Would you like to argue that air doesn't have mass?



Gravitational lensing doesn't require light having mass. Space bends around massive objects. Gravity isn't acting on photons they're traveling along a path that is actually bent

Light is a field perturbation. It is not a thing in of itself. it is an observed reaction, like watching ripples in a pond or how the element on a stovetop turns red as it resists the electrical current. This makes light not have a speed but a rate of induction. Being part of the ambient quantum field, I.E. - the ether, helps explain light's quantum properties as it is inherently in a state of reaction. Gravity could be said to be similar to light as it is a perturbation and therefore reaction based upon electromagnetic properties of the universe.

Ever heard of a laser?
