Although some people see Spanglish as a sign of cultural diversity, I think it is a mistake to use hybrid languages. I think it is better to preserve both languages and try to speak English and Spanish.
I have been in Mexico three years ago and you could find many Spanglish expressions in advertisements or posts and I think these kind of things damage both cultures.
In the case of Spain we have several dialects which are official, but if everyone spoke a mix of Galician and Spanish, for example, we would loose both languages and cultures and get a mixture of them.
To conclude, I think that cultural diversity is important but we should also preserve our traditions and languages.
Here you can see some advertisements I found in Spanglish:
