I doubt anyone can convincingly argue otherwise.

Protesting the Dems after the election will be as effective as protesting the Republicans, regardless of who wins. If neither need your vote to hold power, why would they care any more than they’ll care today?
Taking actions that increase the likelihood of Trump getting elected, makes it impossible for the person to claim any moral high ground.

Causing disruptions at Harris rallies will not save Palestinian lives. Helping Harris get elected (keeping Trump away from power) is the only way to save Palestinian lives. With Harris there will be more humanitarian aid getting in to Gaza, and fewer offensive weapons sent to Israel compared to Trump.

Sometimes in life you have to realize that the ideal outcome is not available to you. And there's nothing you can do to make it available. This is one of those situations.

In the debate between Biden and Trump, Trump used the term "Palestinian" as a slur. Shows you how much he values Palestinian lives. Remember that he moved the embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem (a giant middle finger to Palestinians), and when asked about what Israel should do about Gaza, he said "finish the job quickly" in other words go scorched earth.
