The Invisible Hand can be used to describe benefits that were not intended, because of their actions.

In George Orwell’s 1984, few characters have the substance or the will to engage in any kind of rebellion. But one in particular proved that even with the shackles of society nothing is impossible with enough wits and awareness, that character would be Julia. Although she is often viewed as a rather static character with little substance, through her thoughts and actions Julia can be seen in a completely different light.

1984 Literary Essay: Winston Smith, Hero or Not? George Orwell once offered this definition of heroism: ordinary people doing whatever they can to change social systems that do not respect human decency, even with the knowledge that they can’t possibly succeed.
