The US movies are the main means of the transmission of their cultural heritage. What they regard as good appears in some cool-looking actors or actresses. Just in the same way, good notions appear in their language in good words. And words have written forms. The repulsion of the phrases like "4 U" come merely from their long tradition of the English language.
It is the same sort of resentment that the people would feel when looking at the English language. Most assuredly, people would feel humiliated when their scripts are transformed in mere alphabets or in other languages. It is a transformation of some sort, in the way that distorts how the notions are conveyed in that particular written forms. The visual effects of the language is much more than what the people living in spoken language world seem to assume.
