Even if you persuade me, you won’t persuade me.

Taken at face value, the line expresses a paradox of stubbornness: the speaker claims that even successful argumentation cannot move them. It captures a posture of willful intransigence—refusing not only to be convinced, but even to acknowledge conviction if it occurs. In a comic context (as Aristophanes often stages debates, sophistic rhetoric, and self-contradictory speakers), such a statement can satirize bad-faith argument, where persuasion is treated as a contest rather than a search for truth. It also points to the limits of rhetoric when an audience is determined to resist, highlighting how persuasion depends as much on the listener’s openness as on the speaker’s skill.
