...when someone ends a question in R&S with the words "who agrees with me?"

I always say just what I want whether it agrees or disagrees. As I don't ask questions with the intent of finding those that bolster my own opinion I find it rather odd to want to phrase a question that way. How does one learn if they don't have dissenting views.

First, I would probably disagree with the person, bc I usually see this "who agrees with me" question at the end of questions posted by Fundamentalists who are only asking their question in order to enlist support for what I would consider to be an unsupportable position.
So, I would say "not me" and then if I was feeling in a really smart as s mood, I would probably say, "Are you here for a pep rally or to ask a legitimate question, for which the answers will be to enlighten you rather than support a position you have already decided is the right one?"
go team!

Well, you've just gone and ended your question with 'em...I suppose I might say "actually I held that opinion on my own accord, before you even brought it up, so I suppose we share the same opinion". Or something like that, but then "yes" is quicker and still gets the points.
Assuming I agree, of course. If I don't I probably write an answer saying why.

What I usually want to say (and often do say in a slightly more diplomatic fashion) is:
"Fuggedaboudit, you dingbat! What EVER makes you think I'd agree with some ridiculous bunch of nonsense as that?"

I usually don't answer questions asked by those who need that sort of validation. (Even if I did agree).

I rarely answers questions like that. Maybe yahoo answers needs a "Validating" section.

I think that person isn't looking for answers so much as they are looking to be right. That boils down to arrogance, in my estimation. :)
I usually say something along those lines. :)

"Need an ego boost today? Or are you already that full of yourself?"
or
"No one moron."
Of course I have been known to say such things...

I'd answer you but I'm new and I don't want to get kicked off yet.
