If you want to shutdown forcefully and are sure there is no other way, hold the power button for ~4 seconds.

Your bash is now stopped (as in process state). To revive it, you need to send SIGCONT. That probably means you will need some other shell to kill -18 (which is SIGCONT) your bash. If there is no way to obtain a shell, you will likely have to power cycle the machine with all the implied consequences (possible data loss).
