John 6 the context

Nope those who listen and learn from the Father. You are denying Jesus teaching in John 6.
The Father draws only the ones He has given to Christ in election, thats only reasonable and consistent,

Jn 6:37

37 All that the Father giveth me shall come to me; and him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out.

44 No man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me draw him: and I will raise him up at the last day.

And they are the ones given eternal life to Jn 17:2

As thou hast given him power over all flesh, that he should give eternal life to as many as thou hast given him.
 
The Father draws only the ones He has given to Christ in election, thats only reasonable and consistent,

Jn 6:37

37 All that the Father giveth me shall come to me; and him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out.

44 No man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me draw him: and I will raise him up at the last day.

And they are the ones given eternal life to Jn 17:2

As thou hast given him power over all flesh, that he should give eternal life to as many as thou hast given him.
Again

The ones he gives are those that were his

John 17:1–6 (KJV 1900) — 1 These words spake Jesus, and lifted up his eyes to heaven, and said, Father, the hour is come; glorify thy Son, that thy Son also may glorify thee: 2 As thou hast given him power over all flesh, that he should give eternal life to as many as thou hast given him. 3 And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent. 4 I have glorified thee on the earth: I have finished the work which thou gavest me to do. 5 And now, O Father, glorify thou me with thine own self with the glory which I had with thee before the world was. 6 I have manifested thy name unto the men which thou gavest me out of the world: thine they were, and thou gavest them me; and they have kept thy word.


and he does so by

John 6:45 (KJV 1900) — 45 It is written in the prophets, And they shall be all taught of God. Every man therefore that hath heard, and hath learned of the Father, cometh unto me.

sorry election is in Christ

If you are in Christ you are already his

That's not what the verse says. John 6:44 cannot be divorced from John 6:37. If the Father gives you to Jesus, you SHALL come to him. It doesn't depend on man's free will.

37 All that the Father giveth me shall come to me; and him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out. There's no "if they make the right decision" in that verse. There's no "if" at all.
The Father gives only those that are his

John 17:1–6 (KJV 1900) — 1 These words spake Jesus, and lifted up his eyes to heaven, and said, Father, the hour is come; glorify thy Son, that thy Son also may glorify thee: 2 As thou hast given him power over all flesh, that he should give eternal life to as many as thou hast given him. 3 And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent. 4 I have glorified thee on the earth: I have finished the work which thou gavest me to do. 5 And now, O Father, glorify thou me with thine own self with the glory which I had with thee before the world was. 6 I have manifested thy name unto the men which thou gavest me out of the world: thine they were, and thou gavest them me; and they have kept thy word.

Calvinism holds that a person cannot and will not place faith in Christ and receive salvation unless God specifically elects/chooses that person and gives him or her the gift of faith. God’s choosing of certain people and not others is, according to Calvinism, part of His mysterious will; that is, God does not choose people based on anything the elect did. Nobody can merit or earn being chosen by God. The elect also cannot resist placing faith in Christ and cannot ever turn away from their faith once they accept Jesus. Those people whom God elects have been predestined for salvation from all eternity. Calvinism holds that anyone who is not among God’s elect cannot choose to place faith in Christ and be saved, and Jesus did not die for them. They were predestined to be separated from God for all eternity and have no ability to choose to be saved.

I think it's impossible to come up more negative theology then Calvinism.

It certainly paints a negative picture of God
 
God Draws all men to Jesus.

And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto me. John 12:32

So all men are drawn but not all men make a free will decision to accept Christ.
Jesus draws all men to Him. That can mean many things. Some are drawn to Jesus to hate Him.

There is no free will decision in the following verse:

37 All that the Father giveth me shall come to me; and him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out.

There's no "if they make the right decision" in that verse. There's no "if" at all. If one imposes an "if" or "free will choice" on that verse, one is adding to the scriptures, which is not a wise thing to do.

It's called expounding. God's Word must be expounded in such a way that it shows us our place in Christ.

You said that Jesus draws all men to him and that can mean many things. You came up with hate.

I like The idea of making a Free Will decision to believe in him.

The right decision is to believe in him not all that come to him and hear the gospel do that. No one's adding to scripture just explaining scripture. That's just a dodge. That's a wise guy thing to do.

Remember and never forget...
The gospel invitation extends a call to salvation to everyone who hears its message. For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. John 3:16

Yeah like John 3:16, Calvinist definitely add to that scripture. It goes from being the world to being the elect. Calvinists also seem to be a little embarrassed by the term “irresistible grace” and have sought to soften it or replace it with a term like “effectual calling.” They also object when others criticize that “irresistible grace."

“God forces some people to choose Christ and prevents other people from choosing Christ.” Calvinism 101

Again the father is giving to Jesus those that are his. Those that are his hear his voice, and they will hear Christ voice as well.

It is the Elect or the Church
 
There is not a reputable Greek scholar who states the word world means the elect

This only shows how unobjective you have become
exactly just another conflated word they have robbed its true meaning and replaced it with an unbiblical one- its like reading a corrupt version of Scripture- the NWT for example used by the JW's.
