You are facing a decision for your whole stack while out of position with a mediocre hand and two players left to act after you do.

This means fold.

When making decisions for stacks position becomes irrelevant because there will be no future actions. We all obv already know that.

I'm a newbie so can you explain this to me? I would think going all in negates positional advantage on future streets but not the current street, since the later betters of this round have more information to evaluate the relative strength of their hands.

If you were in last position, but, with only one bettor, wouldn't you be in a much better situation? With people behind you, you have to have to worry about possibly beating more than one hand. Additionally, people behind you are getting better pot odds once you've entered. Like I said, I'm a newbie, so my reasoning may be completely flawed -please point out where, though, so I can try to learn from this.
