Im writing an Essay at the moment:
"Is Kim Jong-un’s rule legitimate from the point of view of Thomas Hobbes and John Locke, respectively? Critically discuss whether the verdicts these philosophers have to make here reflect well or badly on their political philosophies."
Not that this video in any way contributes to my argument, it will however provide for a wry smile and a theme tune to writing it.

No, and no.
There. That was easy. But you've given me some ideas for the one of the essays I'm going to set in my juris course next year.

I've copy pasted your answer
do you think I'll get in trouble for plagiarism?

Depends.
Does your place use Turnitin?
Is your tutor as hardline on plagiarism as I?
Prolly best to footnote it.
(I did once mark an essay that didn't quite address the question I'd set; the one footnote was right at the end, and gave the URL of the page from which the whole thing had been copied. 15 years later, I'm still not quite sure what to make of that one.)

I'm going to beg to differ
I think the answers are 'Yes', 'possibly not' and 'Kim is like life, nasty, brutish and short so what are you gonna do?'.

You might get low marks
if your examiner wants more than three words in an essay though.

I've never marked an essay down for being short.
If it gets everything done in a small time, then great. Of course, its being short often means that there're huge gaps; but being below the word limit itself doesn't bother me in the slightest.
