I think you're confusing a social media site for a journalistic news outlet. A service like Twitter is zero-trust: it's just a collection of individuals and companies that can say or promote nearly whatever they want so long as it stays within the realm of being legal and within ToS.
You might as well say that you can't trust everything you read that's hosted on on AWS.
As far as the algorithm, available evidence suggests that you're not correct about its bias:

Of course, you'll respond to this with the bog-standard conservative manifesto that evidence and researched knowledge is liberal, woke, or whatever the latest scapegoat word of the day looks like.
