That's still too dangerous. What I do is first chown the folder to nobody user. Then sudo to nobody.

Then I type out the full path to the folder, and use the arrow keys to move to the beginning of the line. Then I finally type rm - rf and hit enter

$ rm -rf ./DIR

Including ./ in your path basically tells your system to use your
current working directory
