Do we have proof of social media companies purposefully (or highly likely purposefully) trying to alter the public narrative for events, censoring certain things (like the Epstein files), political or other?

Of course yes. The clearest case yet is how all of them have jumped on the US-Iran war and completely ignored Epstein Files? There's something called framing or narrative formation. Censorship and purposeful alteration of public opinion is very rampant on all media, including social media. And companies like X, owned by Elon Musk, would have all the reasons to censor Epstein files since Elon's bosom buddy is mentioned in these files.

"Free speech" doesn't apply to corporations, they can ban your account for any reason. So "proof" would likely just get lost, but a good example is how on YouTube you'd have to use code words when talking about people like Epstein, anything mentioning pedophilia just gets flagged, even when the pedophile is walking free.

I agree with you 100% it feels like they are just trying to distract from what's really going on. Makes me want to just create a whole social media platform to allow freedom of speech.
