The first step is to open up the Google Slide file in your web browser. The next step is to edit the url. Replace the ending that has edit followed by some other characters with the following:

Once you have edited the url, press the enter key. Now you will be taken to a html present view of the Google Slide file. The next step is to disable Javascript in your web browser. I am using Google Chrome but you can do this in Firefox or Edge, it is just that disabling Javascript is done differently on those web browsers.

After you have disabled Javascript on your web browser, refresh the page. After that you will be able to highlight and copy text on the view only or protected Google Slide, like you can elsewhere.
