How does Google force anyone to use Golang?
If you are a platform vendor like Apple or Microsoft you can be dictatorial and only support your language of choice; In fact Apple's infamous "section 3.3.1" was going to limit iPhone apps to only use approved languages.
But I don't see how Google uses their ecosystem to push Golang. Sure, they use their resources to develop the language and people probably feel better adopting a new language that comes from an established tech company with a lot of resources than one that is purely unfunded open source.
