You recognized the problem correctly, conditional statement is messing up.
So here is how if works for multiple conditions:
python
if  condition1 or condition2 and condition3:
    do something;

Here the condition is a complete condition,
for example in your case:

condition1--> future_input == "y"  -->true if var is "y"
or
condition2-->  "Y": --> always true.

I am sure that you understand now.
so correct way is:
python
if future_input=="y"  or  future_input=="Y":
    do something.
