Why does the moon have gravitational power to create tides, but not to lift any other objects?

Question

If the moon creates the tides, why don’t any other objects get lifted by its gravitational pull?

Answer 1

while earth pulls 1kg with 8.9N the moon pulls with 0.0000036 N.

So earth will “win” and the moons effect is so minimal that we need a lot of mass like an ocean to recognize it.
