You're not saving the world or anything so stop trying to white knight anything you see. I mean I can understand not liking people to be mean to others and such but if you can't even brush off a simple argument over the internet and try to make it cheerful then how in God's name are you gonna survive in the real world?
"White Knights" exist to remind humanity of what moral road it "should" take (depending on society's current viewpoints and cultural stabilities) and what needs to be done to keep from straying away from the path. Without people who keep others on course, humanity would fall into chaos and corruption based on its own need for survival (looking after oneself is a natural, and basic need that everyone has. That need sometimes conflict with what morals we have placed on ourselves)
The day we don't need "white knights" is a day we should rejoice, because that means we have achieved moral stability and awareness. However, today's society dictates that we are not there yet. Therefor "white knights" are needed to keep shitheads from being bigger shitheads.
