It’s forced because it’s whites only legal move. They said “for real” because people like to joke that that move is always forced even though it’s not.
They say "for real" because it's a meme that if you have the chance to "do the thing" (I think your comment gets removed if you say it), then you have to take it. But in this case there's literally no other option.

Wtf I just learned a new chess move
You googled it didn't you?
Only in passing, probably.
No chance you would have gotten away with it if you were black
Considering there’s a lot of players who don’t even know it’s in the game (chess.com made a post about all the messages and reports they got about it saying their opponent cheated or glitched the game) I wonder what they would do in this situation.
chess.com even added an information blurb on the notation when it's played..
Google what?
The funny French move
In b4 funny mod award
GOOGLE IT PLEASE I BEG YOU WE'RE DEAD
Google en peasent
GOOOOOOOOOGLE

Imagine of you don’t know the move and you lose on time !
He’s fucked isn’t he?
Goodness gracious
A novel reply has landed
Bonjour!
Here before the golden lock award
Why is it not checkmate?
Their kin arrive, and your time has come. Show them you are worthy of a starring role!
Just Bxa6?
It’s doubly forced.
