Surely when someone posts content, that date/time that happens is captured by the server in epoch time.

And javascript natively converts epoch time to whatever timezone the client has set. If your user-agent (aka browser) is working on New York time, but you're in Tokyo, well, I'm not sure who else you have to blame but yourself if it shows you New York time when you didn't want that.
