LPTR: how do I talk less?

Sadly, there's no other social group. And considering I've known these people for quite a while ( some for around 3 years, some for 5. Luckily around June-August I won't have to deal with said group and its hive mind ever again) I know them well enough to actually ask relevant questions about themselves and so on.

If the topic is not specifically about the people themselves (TV shows, hiking, etc), and about something I find interest in, I will most likely to try and participate. Even if I actually talk to the point, I sometimes get ignored. Straight out ignored. Depends on the people. Some of the more decent ones "let me" talk. but the rest just speak like I'm not even there. They often make plans and repeatedly clarify " /u/MotherTalker , you are not invited. "

(Needs to bear in mind that this group is assembled from multiple guys from multiple teams, and that some follow the group's hive mind less than others. However, they still prefer being a part of the group rather than be individuals with me.)

I could try behaving more like them, but I just don't believe in that. We may not agree on multiple things (for example, the group gossips a lot. I'm strictly against gossip, and I try the hardest I can not to listen to it. Alongside multiple things both the group and I don't agree upon, it has members that harass other people and I am not willing to bond with them through harassment either.). I just try getting a bit closer to the people who are nice in the group, just so I won't just be alone until July, but the hive mind doesn't let them go. I just want to be treated as a fucking human, because I get treated like shit and no decent human deserves that. Sure, I am definitely far from perfect and so are they, but I believe that even if people don't fully agree with each other they should at least talk. I just don't know how to make a hive mind like me.
