Nice, maybe the last word ends in "y", like, "in vocal support of ~company" is a "~companist".

Oooh, ooo, y'all ARE going to get the harder one. Let me just say that support is definitely on the right track, but there are other suffixes that can go with it.

Then supported or supporter.

Supporter of...

I probably put an hour today into eliminating "supplier" as a reasonable possibility.

It's also a word that has all different letters, so it can't be something like "communist" because that has 2 Ms.

I feel never closer never farther away. I guess i have fatalism, in support of fatality.
A thought on a clue option:
can you define the last word in the definition with the same taking-out-letters rule?

No, but that fits! Amusing that there is more than one answer! The original word does not end in -ist, but this whole line of "a person who believes in ------y" is spot on.
