Anyone have strategy or mindset to tolerate indirect speech culture, when you prefer direct communication?

I live at a town in indonesia. At east java. I don't like norm of politeness, passive aggressiveness here. The indirect speech to maintain politeness. But i also say passive aggressive thing when i get offended. Bcs direct talk will escalate conflict. idk now bcs i've been social isolating, but when i was at school, it has "saving face" culture. I've read non violence communication too, but afraid of doing it irl especially when dealing with stranger, bcs afraid to be judged as weird. I did practice it before at home, but recently has stopped bcs i feel tired. I need more mental space to do it.

I perceive indirect speech as manipulative and a way to avoid accountability and honesty. I experienced more eased talking with germans. I have tck background in japan too, but also feel not quite liking japanese communication style of politeness, but can't be sure if it was genuine or performative. Indirect speech often irritate me, as i need extra brain work to guess what they meant actually.

Do you have strategy to deal indirect speech when you prefer direct talks, and living in indirect speech country?

What economy system, social norm you want to live in?

I wonder what kind of ideal economy system and social norm HSPs want to live in? Do we have common interest or just different ideas as hsp?

I want to live in society that when people do job, the job guarantee their happiness. Less stress. For economy, the rich, and more skilled people share their income happily with the poor, less privileged people. People won't have children unless they prepared financially, mentally and parenting skill.

What's your ideal world? Thank you~

Can i know what do you think about my 12th house?

From my interpretation, this 12th house relevant with my experience of : often thinking about humanity moral, ethic, i'm concerned by it (for Jupiter). For Uranus, it's about comment online to spread awareness, and rebel to social norms. Neptune in Capri, maybe relates to when i think what possible realistic approach i could do to make my idealism could spread irl. Idk how the path of fortune manifestation. It's annoying, i can't notice this. Maybe is it feeling of, "whoa somebody upvote my comment" or "hohoo, that seems get them"?. Would anyone please tell me what's my path of fortune do?

Can i know what's your opinion about my 12th house?
