Between the two, which is the greater striking art for practically in real world situations? Thai boxing or full-contact Karate.

I wouldn't even go that far. Just the regularity of throwing from a clinch or sweeping the legs out from under a guy is enough.

At the end of the day your stylistic choice isnt going to matter much
Unless you're talking about kyokushin, then its muay thai 100%
Kyoku is pure garbage, no actual applicable fighting technique, it's just a durability contest
My assumption is you meant karate with actual live sparring practice in which case what I said applies, at the end of the day any difference is negligible, they're both the same family of kung fu derived ethnic striking arts

6 months of muay thai are equivalent of 6 years of karate?

Muay Thai, because it's not clueless if you get grabbed

Actually good Kyokushin karate is cooler, but Muay Thai will get you to an effective level much faster and is the gold standard of stand up combat

Generally speaking MT, they even work the clinch. But the optimal answer is traditional karate practised with free sparring. Not that ass looking point kumite.
Anyway, if you were born cat not style can make you a tiger.

Id say karate is like a cute dance class, just like taekwondo. Something your dad takes you to, when youre a kid.
But you know why parents dont take their kids to muay thai or boxing? You get fucked up there for real.
Youre allowed to hit with knees and elbows even to the temple of head at muay thai. Its not a fucking joke. If you sign up there, LISTEN TO YOUR TRAINER WHEN THEY SPEAK. You may fuck around at aikido or taekwondo, bt Muay Thai is where the games end.
Have some nice art. Because theres nothing nice waiting you in the ring.

Real world situation is you reach for whatever you can find within arms reach and 99% of the time that is a weapon that gives you an overwhelming advantage sage
