In the GUI, I can trash a non-empty directory with a right-click and Move to Trash. What command line option would I use with rmdir to remove a non-empty directory?

I suggest you learn to use the tools...

$ man rmdir

"recursively" means go down the directory tree

Note that you may get directories or files which are "read only",
and get prompts. To prevent this, use the -f (force) option.

But really, RTFM!

I speak only for myself, and I am unanimous in that!
