I'm not sure "Myth" is really the appropriate word for Victim Theory; other wikipedia articles such as Victim Theory avoid the term myth and it clearly lends the article to a specific opinion. Other more glaring violations include calling 1980s Austria a "Nazi Country", in the first paragraph of "Acknowledgement of Liability".
My assumption is a lot of the non-neutral terminology has it's roots in the original Russian or in the translation. Judging by the edit history of this article and articles that link to it, it's mostly been done by a single person. Beyond that, the general grammar of the article ranges from off-kilter ("Only in 1960 conservatives became concerned with an unpredictable behaviour of people dressed in the Wehrmacht uniform so Austria banned to wear Swastika.") to unreadable ("During the whole Waldheim's (1986–1992) the international situation of Austria was getting worse; governments of the USA and Israel joined to the pressure of Jewish diasporas as they did not wanted to admit the Nazi country, which has supported Yasser Arafat and Muammar Gaddafi, to the world politics."). A bit of clean-up would go a long way.
Also, a lot of sentences venture too far from being clinical into being prose. I.e. "A patriotic upsurge appeared in the country and replaced bitter memories." Not really sure if that's a problem, but it feels out of place.

The Gusen part of the KZ wasn't conserved after the war. The fate of the place isn't decided yet. [1],[2]Xx236 (talk) 08:02, 4 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Austria – the Nazis' first victim → Austria victim theory – The article is not about the slogan, it's about the theory itself—that Austria was the victim of Germany during World War II. The German article is located at de:Opferthese ("victim theory") which seems to be the common name in German. In English "victim theory" has other uses, so Austria or Austrian should be added as a natural disambiguation. buidhe 08:49, 8 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
This article takes a clearly critical tone before even fully introducing what the ‘first victim of maxi aggression’ theory was or how it developed. A Tree In A Box (talk) 01:26, 3 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
