The net result is that I have transmitted a message into my own past.

Yes this is literally the explanation that comes from every physicist and science explainer I have come across. The problem I have is the how. I do not understand how a message sent real time, as in at the same time on two different planets vast distances away, can go back in time "somehow". Like, I get that the actual answer is ultimately "the math says so" but I cannot adequately wrap my head around the concept.
