Comment (by geisthanen):

 I understand this is confusing but the logic behind next and previous is
 inverse if you consider we are looking everything from a descending optic.


 {{{get_next_posts_link()}}} usually points to older entries (toward the
 end of the set), hence in order to navigate back the label should be
 Previous Posts.
 {{{get_previous_posts_link()}}} usually points to newer entries (toward
 the beginning of the set). hence in order to navigate back the label
 should be Newer Posts.

 The filters you mentioned are applied to those functions.
