("然而在一片 [racist] 争议声中，也有网友发现，这则广告与一个数年前意大利洗衣液广告的情节、音乐都如出一辙，存在抄袭的嫌疑")

(a) Ellie House, Most Racist Advert Ever Take Two – Italians Trump Chinese with 'Coloured Is Better' Campaign; Chinese soap powder advert that 'cleans up' a black man was bad enough but now the Italians have a colour detergent that transforms a white man into a black hunk.

("The advert has been reported as a copycat of the Chinese commercial, but if anything it must be the other way around as the Italian ad can be traced back to at least 2006")
(i) "a ripped muscly black man * * * a black man with rippling 涟漪 muscles"
(ii) ripped (adj): "informal Having well-defined or well-developed muscles; MUSCULAR"

(A) The verb rip itself does not have this meaning.
(B) I search high and low, but can not find etymology of "ripped" in this sense.
