The (ssget "_x" '((210 0.0 0.0 -1.0))) selects all objects with the Extrusion direction set to 0, 0, -1.
There's no way it could have selected text that wasn't corrupted unless you modified the code.
Which does work for the drawing you posted. Wasn't the modified drawing I posted modified correctly?
You could modify it to (ssget "_x" '((0 . "TEXT")(210 0.0 0.0 -1.0))) which would only select TEXT with the Extrusion direction set to 0, 0, -1 if you want to limit it to that for a different drawing.
