In Reply to: Why are all the products named "Victory?" posted by Chancellor on March 20, 2002 at 16:37:53:

One reason that the products may be named by the prefix "victory" is that by the optimistic view of the word, people will beleive that they are helping in the war effort of Oceania and that they are having quality products. The word also symblozes the party. After the revolution had been won, all that there was is victory. Thus, the people feel a deeper adoration of Big Brother and the party.
