Some ways to copy messages are logging in using a desktop or taking screenshots and copying text.

Why May You Need To Copy Messages From Facebook Messenger?
You may need to copy messages from the Facebook messenger app for various reasons.
Perhaps you want to save a conversation for reference, or you want to save a message that you think is important.
Someone may have given you an important fact or detail that you may need to make a note of. Copying and pasting the message will come in handy at this moment.
Besides, the sender may have said something adorable or written something nice you wish to save on your phone.
Another possible reason is that you wish to forward the same message to someone on another app. In this situation, you can copy the message and send it to the person via a different app.
If you wish to share the same long message with more than one person, copying the message will make it easier.
Furthermore, it can be a great way to back up your messages in case you need them later. It can be helpful if you need to share a message with someone who doesn’t have Facebook Messenger.
Finally, it can be a way to keep track of your conversations if you need to refer back to them later.
Someone may not remember what they sent in a message; you may copy and paste the message to show them.
You may pin conversations on your messenger app for easy access. Long touch and hold a conversation, and select the Pin option. This way, you can quickly see the messages to copy.
