messageCreate isn't firing

I'm not getting messageCreate triggers when a message is sent in a chat channel.

To cover items from similar questions:

- I've triple-checked my intents (see below)
- I've got the "partials" thing in the code
- The bot is in the server (/commands work)
- The bot has access to all (one) channels
- Perms are properly set in the bot portal

Relevant Code:

// create a new Client instance
const discord_client = new Client({
    intents: [
        GatewayIntentBits.DirectMessages,
        GatewayIntentBits.DirectMessageReactions,
        GatewayIntentBits.DirectMessages,
        GatewayIntentBits.DirectMessageTyping,
        GatewayIntentBits.Guilds,
        GatewayIntentBits.GuildMessageReactions,
        GatewayIntentBits.GuildMessages,
        GatewayIntentBits.GuildMessageTyping,
        GatewayIntentBits.MessageContent,
    ],
    partials: [
        Partials.Message,
        Partials.Channel,
    ]
});

// listen for the client to be ready
discord_client.once(Events.ClientReady, (c) => {
    console.log(`Ready! Logged in as ${c.user.tag}`);
});

// listen for general chat and respond
discord_client.on(Events.MessageCreate, async interaction => {
    console.log(`Responding to chat in ${interaction.channelId}`);
});

// create a new Client instance
const discord_client = new Client({
    intents: [
        GatewayIntentBits.DirectMessages,
        GatewayIntentBits.DirectMessageReactions,
        GatewayIntentBits.DirectMessages,
        GatewayIntentBits.DirectMessageTyping,
        GatewayIntentBits.Guilds,
        GatewayIntentBits.GuildMessageReactions,
        GatewayIntentBits.GuildMessages,
        GatewayIntentBits.GuildMessageTyping,
        GatewayIntentBits.MessageContent,
    ],
    partials: [
        Partials.Message,
        Partials.Channel,
    ]
});

// listen for the client to be ready
discord_client.once(Events.ClientReady, (c) => {
    console.log(`Ready! Logged in as ${c.user.tag}`);
});

// listen for general chat and respond
discord_client.on(Events.MessageCreate, async interaction => {
    console.log(`Responding to chat in ${interaction.channelId}`);
});

The log from the

ClientReady

ClientReady

event is seen as expected, but the log from

MessageCreate

MessageCreate

never shows up at all.

Unless I'm totally understanding things, I should see that log every time someone writes something in the server where the bot is present, right?
