But would you agree with it if we lived in a world where nobody ever forgot anything? Because that's what we're living in now with the internet.

When I read "right to be forgotten" I think of it just as how people forget about the dumb stuff they did as a kid, which we've all done and would prefer to forget. The internet makes this impossible.

Now obviously this could be misused to forget things that really shouldn't be forgot (say, murder or other political things), but that depends on the particular case and they need to be evaluated as such. Just because people have the option doesn't mean it will be abused, and maybe we should concentrate our efforts on making sure it isn't than denying the right completely.

Also please don't judge me too harshly but in my personal opinion I think a lot of people would have been for this a few years ago, but now when it's an option people always find reasons to bitch about something because it makes them seem smarter. "Hah, everyone thinks this is good? Let me prove everyone just how wrong they are." Not pointing at anyone in particular. It's not even tied to this particular issue either, but I feel like I see it a lot. I myself have done this in the past.
