Ostrichsized .... (probably spelled wrong as it is not a commomly used word these days.)
How about shouted down by the unruly rabble, or chased out of barnyard by a gaggle of geese, or ignored by the villagers as the crackpot inventor?
Ostrich, that big African bird that does stick its head in the sand, but also can group and expell outsiders with great fighting prowess.
In social terms, it is the gaggle of women socially ignoring someone, or the social group of men denouncing or not letting someone into their group ... as I understand the term.
Should I also explain the old lady line of inside information for small towns, or have most of you experienced this firsthand?
If you didn't giggle or laugh at some of this, you need to be thrown until you get your sense of humor back.
