Definition
甭管 is a colloquial contraction of 不用管 (bùyòng guǎn), meaning 'don't bother about' or 'never mind'. It is often used as a verb phrase on its own (e.g., 甭管我 'don't bother about me'). It also serves as a conjunction in the pattern 甭管……都……, meaning 'no matter / regardless of', similar to 无论. This pattern introduces a condition and asserts that the result holds regardless.
