It wasn't a handful of idiots. It was part of a conspiracy hatched, and now revealed, by the outgoing President of the United States and his minions. The testimony includes his oldest daughter and the former U.S. Attorney General. If that constitutes a "handful of idiots," so be it.
More to the point, you cannot define socialism, even though definitions are readily available.
Long and short, Jeff Bezos is not a socialist. He is a very very rich capitalist, one of the richest in the world. He got that way through capitalism by starting and expanding a private business. His investment in The Washington Post is a private investment. He said he would not interfere with the newspaper's policies and coverage, and there's no evidence that he's done otherwise. The paper has, from time to time, run articles not favorable to him (while mentioning he owns the paper). They have also run articles critical of Biden.
Again, define socialism before we proceed.
