Communists recognize that nationalization by a capitalist state is not a furthering of the aims of socialism, but instead is largely done to entrench and manage capitalism. This is why the working classes need to smash and replace the state with a working class state. When you analyze with a class outlook, it becomes easier to see why this isn't necessarily a progressive move and why communists aren't fans of it.
