Unremorsefully religious, anti-state, and anti-capitalist

I recently created a Christian anarchist server. If anyone is interested in building a community come join me. So far we only have 2 people. Also, any advice helps!
Here's where I'm coming from:
I don't even love labels but I am one who could be pretty well described as a Christian Anarchist Universalist. To put a little meat on the bones of that: I'm something in the ballpark of an anarchist (even though I'm not really actively trying to overthrow the state) because I just want people to stop trying to grab control of the reins of power as their primary way of enacting good in the world. There are ways of doing good without wielding power over others, so we should probably just try to do that. Then the "Universalist" bit is basically me saying I am very, very skeptical of the idea of eternal conscious torment and honestly kinda to the point that I have trust issues with anyone who does believe that. That may be wrong of me I guess but I'm just being honest.
Both of these things are important to me to the point that I think I would have a hard time attending a church where these beliefs are not dominant or at least well-represented belief. That's making it really hard to get together with other Christians at the moment because these things are of course relatively fringe in Christianity. So I guess I'm just curious A. are there others out there at this intersection or a similar intersection of things? (I don't necessarily care if you use these specific labels, only if you resonate with the ideas) and B. where would you recommend I go to try to find community as a person at this intersection (I'm talking in-person-meeting or at least zoom-meeting community).
If nothing like this exists (and to be honest I kinda suspect it does not), does anyone wanna start a weird little informal Anarchist-Universalist church with me?

religion", as well as the article "Spirituality and
spectacularity".
