Deism to me is purely a philosophic position. Whether or not there was a “prime mover” is a philosophical question, that honestly really makes no difference.
Where the trouble starts is when people start asserting said Prime Mover wants ME to do something, and that they know what it is and are willing to ram their conclusions down my throat.
I can get along with deists. I can’t get along with the sort of fundie who is willing to use force to get me to do (what they think is) god’s will.
