othering

the act of alienating from the group; not including someone because they are different

The kids in the choir are always othering the ones that don't sing very well; they won't let them sit at the same lunch table.
Othering people who aren't like you isn't cool; you may be losing out on a new friend with your close-minded fears of anything different from what you are used to; and besides, it's mean.
