I dont hate people.
Im not pressuring God to press "smite".
Is there a ratio to world/christian that is met before God has enough?
Is one christian enough to make that intercession successfully or is the point not whether or not it would be a success but that we knowing the futility of that action would interceed anyway?

God's ways are not our ways. The reference is from
Isaiah 59, and it specifically refers to God's willingness to forgive those we feel ought to be judged instead.
As easy as it is to focus on the negatives, just remember, God is longsuffering, Jesus was the propitiation for not just our sins, but for the sins of the whole world, and that God is in Christ, not imputing trespasses, but rather, saving. He has mercy towards thousands of generations of those that love Him. The Son of Man came not to destroy but to save. Grace abounds where sin abounds.
In patience possess your soul, brother.
