word filtering

Trying to get this word filter to work. Its logging "Checking message" and its running the for loop, but its not running the if statement nor am I getting the catch. I originally had the deprecated "message" instead of "messageCreate" and it was just deleting every message sent, but now its not deleting anything. It has the guild messages intent.

const badword = ['test'];

client.on('messageCreate', message => {
    const content = message.content;
    const stringToCheck = content.replace(/\s+/g, '').toLowerCase();

    console.log('Checking message:', content);

    for (let i = 0; i < badword.length; i++) {
        console.log('test');
        if (stringToCheck.includes(badword[i])) {
            console.log('Bad word found. Deleting message:', content);
            message.delete()
                .then(deletedMessage => console.log('Message deleted:', deletedMessage.content))
                .catch(error => console.error('Error deleting message:', error));
            break;
        }
    }
});

const badword = ['test'];

client.on('messageCreate', message => {
    const content = message.content;
    const stringToCheck = content.replace(/\s+/g, '').toLowerCase();

    console.log('Checking message:', content);

    for (let i = 0; i < badword.length; i++) {
        console.log('test');
        if (stringToCheck.includes(badword[i])) {
            console.log('Bad word found. Deleting message:', content);
            message.delete()
                .then(deletedMessage => console.log('Message deleted:', deletedMessage.content))
                .catch(error => console.error('Error deleting message:', error));
            break;
        }
    }
});
