unconvincible
Cannot be swayed
Unconvincible describes someone who cannot be persuaded or swayed from their position, no matter the evidence or argument presented.
The word suggests a fixed mindset beyond ordinary stubbornness: He remained unconvincible even after seeing the data.
More commonly rendered as *unconvinceable*, though both forms appear.
