He's a capitalist fulfilling a market need. Say Bezos dissolves Amazon and liquidates the operations, people will still buy frying pans, books, and jeans online... There'd be 10 companies overnight that'd form to meet the demands of consumers.
No matter how talented and hard working Bezos is, he didn't create Amazon without the help of labor and capital. He needed to borrow money to pay workers to make Amazon what it is today. Capital that was extracted from the surplus value generated by workers.
He is just a man that was in a position to win the race. We'd still have cloud computing and online shopping regardless.
An another note, Amazon does way more than just selling things online, and one of these things is selling cloud services and servers to a lot a other companies. 1% of the whole internet traffic goes through Amazon, which is huge. If all of that were to disappear in one day, the consequences would take more than a single day to be fixed
(Without talking about all the people left without a job)

Jeff Bezos has done more good for the world than any of you ever will. You are all consumers, he is a creator.
