1. Yes, and at times they were even part of coalitions as the lesser party.
2. Japan has been repeatedly called xenophobic by Xbox fans. Also, here's an excerpt of an FPÖ song from over 20 years ago:
"Wo i geh und steh, [Wo ich geh' und steh',] tuat mia mei Herz so weh, [tut mir mein Herz so weh,] gibt's meina Sö an Stich, [gibt es meiner Seele einen Stich,] weil i überoi Kanaken siech. [weil ich überall Kanaken sehe.]"
Nazi party, most definitely.
3. No, Germany will not take over Austria, rather Austria will join the German Reich.
4. Schlechte Rechtschreibung zieht Gesindel an.

You can't just join a country Especially if said country doesn't want you to join.
No one in german politics wants austia anywhere near the German federation. It's not even talked about. Ever. It's not even an option.
This wierd, bitter love/hate relationship Austria has with germany dates back to the very beginnings of the german federation. Prussia were the clear leaders of the initiative to get a unified germany and they didn't want anyone challenging their leadership, so they excluded Austria, which back then was the only nation that would have ben able to challenge them. Ever since then Austians have been salty about that.
Hitler finally got his wish when he annected Austia (I mean he had to have his home country in his reich, right?) and most Austrians were ecstatic about it, only to be excluded again after the war.
So, even if the FPÖ guy gets elected, I don't think Austria joining germany in any capacity has a snowballs chance in hell, you can rest easy on that front.
Overall the political situation in Austria in worrying though. The thing is, fear can only be combatted with education. And education takes time and money to achieve. You seem pretty reasonable rol, so maybe put your education to use next election.
