If a belief doesn’t fit an ideological or religious framework, I think that X-ist and ism are often bad. I actually use the phrases “ID proponent” fairly often partially for this reason. I’m not sure however that this case is completely symmetric given that ID proponents self-identify as part of the “intelligent design movement” (a term used for example repeatedly by William Dembski and occasionally by Michael Behe.)
