if the United States allows the phenomenon of income inequality to grow,

ok, let's stop right there. Solution: stop illegal immigration

"So why am I calling for conflict—real conflict, not its facsimile?"

I'd love to be a fly on the wall when this pompous POS is beating on the door of an accelerating Gulfstream full of his Wall Street fellow travelers on it's way to the Caymans while strange supersonic "cracks" get ever closer to his head.

Apologies for the run-on sentence.

Professor, in the real world its liberals like you that present an existential threat to the planet.

This is a deliberate attempt at combining two distinct and dissimilar problems to argue for a common solution, which is impossible. Only the Obama contingent would consider that reasonable and logical.

Let's dispense with the easy one first : Global warming or whatever name they have dreamed up this week to alarm the ignorant.
They wish to spend trillions$ unproductively, on speculation, theories faked and discredited over and over. The expense in social sacrifices is real and permanent. As is the real expenditure in national wealth.

Not a very rational choice, until the proponents prove scientifically, that CO2 is a problem gas, using the Federal Rules of Evidence and Procedures, in court, allowing both sides to present the evidence, it remains a discredited political attempt at total societal control. A no Brainer fraud.

The other, immigration, is based on the theory that the concept of national sovereignty no longer exists.
Or it exists for some, but not for others : e.g. Mexico and Central American nations can claim it without reservation or conditions, but the U.S. cannot.

Another no Brainer.

“Talk about embracing conflict seems divisive, which is automatically taken as a bad thing these days,” he wrote. “But division as such is not a bad thing.”

It's not a bad thing, in the eyes of this professor, if it's being done by him and his ilk. On the other hand, if folks on the right, say Tea Partiers, start questioning, and being 'divisive', it's a REAL bad thing!

You have to know what they’re saying, in order to refute it!

What the professor intends & what will happen to him in the upcoming Failure of Civility are two entirely different things. Sad that with his level of education he isn’t able to figure that out by himself.
