EW . . . since I have to be at happy hour in 30 seconds, I'll give the shortest possible refutation to your circular logic, OK? It goes a little something like this:
If power constructs are not "real" (or are "not provable", whatever language you prefer) and should not be the basis for law, then certainly you disagree with domestic violence provisions, right? After all, those exist because of power imbalances that lead to the victim having much less control or power than usual given the nature of the crime (and, it's important to note, the laws apply to both men AND women, although they are overwhelmingly applied against men - kind of like, oh, hate crime laws).
So . . . certainly you're not a wifebeater, right? But how does that jive with what you're arguing in re: race and "minority" definitions (which are all terrible strawman arguments that purposely misconstrue terminology in the broadest way possible, btw)?
