Is it literally electricity?

No, it's not. It's cascades of ion potentials. That's why it's slow and touch-sensitive.

how is ionic potential not electricity? what is it if not that? I thought ion potential was just how electrically charged the thing is

Initial state: all potential pumped up.

Signal flow state: first pump releaes, changing potential, which triggers the next pump to release.

You can think of this like a series of condenser plus transistor discharging one after another.

While usual electricity is just one potential-difference.
