Also known as the “traitorous critic fallacy”, Ergo Decedo is a bad faith rhetorical fallacy that takes the form of:
- If you love country so much, why don’t you go live there?
- If you hate country so much, why don’t you leave?
This fallacy completely ignores the substance of the claim they are responding to, and implies that no one can criticize their own country or praise any other country.
