Questions & Answers about Nie myślcie o mnie, nie wdaję się w wasze bezcelowe konflikty.
Why aren't the objects in the genitive case despite the negative words nie?
This is the exact rule you are learning right now! When a verb's object is introduced by a preposition (like o or w), the preposition overrides the Genitive of Negation. The verb myśleć o always needs the locative case, and wdawać się w always needs the accusative case, whether the sentence is negated or not.
Why is the pronoun mnie used here instead of mi?
The preposition o meaning 'about' always requires the locative case. The locative form of the pronoun ja is mnie. You might be thinking of mi, but that is the short dative form used when something is given or done to someone.
What case is wasze bezcelowe konflikty and how is it triggered?
It is in the accusative case. The verb phrase wdawać się w (to get involved in) takes the accusative because it implies a metaphorical motion or entry into a situation. Since they are non-masculine-personal plural words, their accusative forms look identical to the nominative.
